Let Me Be a Woman

by Elisabeth Elliot

Letters to her daughter before marriage on womanhood, marriage, submission and vocation, from a traditional complementarian view. Loved by many, rejected by many; clear about what it believes.

Skip it if…

you hold egalitarian views; it will not persuade you.

Try instead: Erasing Hell →

Three things you will actually use

  1. Acceptance is the first step to freedom.
  2. Vocation is given, not chosen.
  3. Love is doing, not feeling.

Do this first

Read the letters on singleness and on the meaning of marriage.

Our verdict

The traditional view, articulately.
