#KnowingWhoYouAreBecauseOfWhoGodIs – Demi-Leigh Tebow
#LuxVerbi
When a former Miss Universe turns author, especially in the Christian genre, skepticism is justified. Polonius’ advice to Laertes is an applicable barometer in this regard: “This above all: to thine own self be true, / And it must follow. As night the day, thou canst not then be false to any man.”
In the current context this will require examining previous publications by the author to determine credibility and consistency. In 2024 A crown that lasts was published by Lux Verbi. The contents can be summarized by the subtitle You are not your label, and she effectively and creatively utilized her own experiences to convey the intended message. Princess Paris finds her purpose (Lux Verbi, 2025), an illustrated children’s book, followed a similar theme, presented as an age-appropriate fable.
Knowing who you are because of who God is continues the theme, but is submitted in a different format, namely a 100-day devotional, comprising two parts. Each part consists of a 10-week study; part 1 is titled Knowing who you are and part 2 Because of who God is. Both are structured in a similar fashion, namely a weekly Biblical promise as introduction, followed by the plot on day 1 (surveying the land), the dig on day 2 (preparing the land), the planting on day 3 (possible only after the obstacles had been removed), the growing on day 4 (nourishing and cultivation) and flourishing on day 5 (encouragement and reminders).
Interactivity, rather than passive lecturing, is promoted by the inclusion of question-and-answer sessions and the setting of goals, raising the devotional pages to the status of a workbook. In part 1 resilience is taught by dissecting female insecurities, the handling of criticism, and comparisons, and in part 2 the biblical source of identity is established.
The author authentically combines her personal experiences with scriptural teachings to demonstrate the essence of Psalm 139 in modern, practical terms.
