![]() ![]() It opened my eyes to something I'd never really considered before. It was based on Scripture and shied away from a narrow focus on applications. It's (Not That) Complicated is about all these things. Most of those seemed to focus on handling emotions, keeping pure, keeping busy, and using your single years to deepen your relationship with God. When I first read It's (Not That) Complicated I'd already read a whole bunch of other books for young women about guy/girl relationships. It can be really hard to review a book that changed your life. So, I can take from the good and throw away the bad. I land somewhere in between, because I neither hold to a feminist view or an extreme patriarchal view. If you believe in complete feminist egalitarianism, then you will abhor this book. If you agree with totalitarian patriarchy, then you will love this book. As if women aren't given visions and missions in life. Also, the authors believe that women exist only to help and aid men who are given a mission and visions from God. I agree that we need each other, but I do not believe we complete each other. Basically, women are not complete without men and vica versa. However, I disagree with the extreme views of the authors as far as their male dominance views go. ![]() ![]() Young men and women can and should communicate and build each other up in the Lord. If you want a book that talks about Christ-honoring relationships with the opposite gender but don't want extreme patriarchal views intertwined.don't read this book. ![]()
