So this book, let’s start with the positives. Some of the lies that they address are very accurate such as (I need a boyfriend )well done.
Other areas, are hit and miss other areas I have a theological difference. And their points in this book where it’s either borderline or, racist an out right xenophobic. they refer to yoga, white washed American yoga. as Sanskrit yoga,
First of all the levels, of wrong and that is layered, Then they referred to, yoga.as being evil because it’s connected to eastern religions. which is a whole other layer problematic.
Just note that it’s wrong and inappropriate
Some of the stories they share in the book have like teenagers being upset that they weren’t into his relationships in high school and getting ready to get married I wish I was kidding.
Consent is not mentioned at all in this book. Not a word not a blip nothing.
They also are super contradictory, they say don’t do yoga, do Pilates. even though Pilates, is quite literally based off of yoga.
They say meditation is evil. and dangerous, but yet suggest especially. in the study guide, that you meditate. technically, they don’t use that word but it’s the same context.
They make a big deal about how you should be a stay at home wife and mother. even though, this book is meant for teenagers.
They make, a lot of deal about grown-up, adult things. like marriage, kids, career, when this book is for teenagers.
Of course we have all the purity culture nonsense
And the homophobia.
There’s also the section, about how you shouldn’t break the law, you shouldn’t break any rules, you shouldn’t challenge authority or the status quo. Even though Jesus, literally did all of that.
Supposed to say I am more confused by reading this and then I am not it’s confusing it’s perplexing it makes no sense
But it’s a quick read
So there’s that
And they do really make good points and have a good conversation.
it’s clear that they care and they are trying which is more than a lot of people.
But anyway that’s my two cents
Oh and the study guide has these weird sections about how what you want your future husband and how you’re gonna be a good wife and mother again this is for teenagers that feels weird to me.
