Being dangerous in our world in the 21st century promotes a negative visual. Some may picture uncontrolled deranged individuals running around the streets with guns and knives with crazy looks in their eyes.
This is dangerous to any society.
The Dangerous Women in this book are anything but a danger to society. Their contributions to their circles of influence are world changing. They do not follow the status quo, but rather influence them with their God-given authority, position and responsibility. They challenge others through their example of what righteousness looks like and their declaration of the God-given rights that every believer possesses.
Dangerous Women celebrate their womanhood and feminine aspects — each one designed with grand purposes. These women understand their unique influence in the world and strive to live it out daily.
The time is now to step into your place, take back what has been taken from you and reclaim what belongs to you as Dangerous Women.
TLDR: this was a good book with convicting calls to action. I appreciated the author's passion and am inspired by her example.
More thoughts...
Content wise, Marx offers a no nonsense and direct call for women to step with confidence into the roles God has for them as women and as Christians. I love a no-fluff writing style and appreciated how she simplifies and clarifies what it is to be a woman who is strong through Christ's strength and work in her. I felt that conviction and desire to grow in some of the areas she highlighted.
However (and this is likely a personal problem and most definitely a personal opinion), I do not feel like Marx really allows for much nuance. Some women genuinely and deeply struggle with fear or anxiety or have other challenges whether it be in health, parenting, etc. While I do agree with her underlying arguments, I think some gentleness for women who are not quite the bad-@$$ she is (I mean, read her bio) could be helpful.
