This book is a
journey. It is not a quick read but rather a discovery of choosing to be real
in a messy world as you follow Bekah Jane Pogue in Choosing Real. Society
tells us women we need to have a “House Beautiful,” be super skinny, and be the
perfect mom and coworker. But God wants
us right where we are, the real us, in an authentic relationship. Pogue writes, "Truth brings freedom and cements my identity. And truth can come only from the
Creator (p.114).” The book covers topics
like communication, pain, loneliness and unworthiness using many personal
stories from the author’s own life. It took a while for me to get use to the
author’s writing style but then I was reeled into the story. The journey to
discovery of the real you and your relationship with God will take time so plan
on rereading this book many times to gather all the nuggets of truth and wisdom
it offers.
I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour
Publishing in exchange for my honest review.
