Women are bombarded with ideas of perfection--and tips for how to achieve it--every day. From her work to her looks to her parenting, today's modern woman is expected to strive to be picture perfect in every way. As a result, calls for authenticity and imperfection are on the rise. Yet, deep down, most of us still want to achieve perfection. Why? The desire to be perfect, says Kim Hyland, is actually a God-given urge. After all, we were made for Eden. But there is a difference between perfection and perfectionism, which is our attempt to achieve perfection on our own, by our own strength, and for our own purposes--the original temptation in the Garden. In this freeing book, Hyland offers women a stirring manifesto for acknowledging their limitations and embracing the perfection of God through his grace. This is a book for every woman who gives 110% and yet feels shame when one little thing goes wrong.

Is daar 'n absolute waarheid wat ons lewe beheer? Wereldwyd raak al meer mense in hulle denke volwasse. Hulle aanvaar nie sake onkrities vir 'n "tweedehandse" lewe nie. Die dans met God vra reguit vrae en sny diep deur tradisionele antwoorde om by die sin van die lewe uit te kom. Moderne mense fokus net op dinge wat hulle kan bewys - maar verloor die misterie. Is daar 'n ander pad? Hoe kan ons nuut dink oor God en die geloof, sonder om die innerlike belewing prys te gee? Hierdie oopkop en rustige (soms vrolike) boek neem die leser op 'n lewensreis waar elkeen self kan soek - en vind. Jy leef die oomblik, want dis heilig.
