• Identity Theft: Reclaiming the Truth of our Identity in Christ by Melissa B. Kruger

By: Elizabeth Schlueter

Elizabeth contrasts philosopher Edith Stein's vision of fully developed, virtuous Christian womanhood with two opposing distortions which our culture encourages young women to emulate: One which seeks a self-serving autonomy, the other which encourages women to seek their identity only through needing and controlling others. These falsifications of true womanhood deny or distort the great gift of the female body, and instead emphasize the most problematic feminine tendencies. Using Stein's analysis and examples from personal experience and popular culture, I will try to show how the virtuous Christian woman can truly embrace female embodiment and bring her unique womanly gifts into EVERY vocational enterprise and profession, though especially into the primary vocations of marriage and motherhood.
