How should we listen to, and think in a gospel way about, the ordinary things we come across in modern life? Things we watch, read, eat, and do. There are so many voices saying so many different things that the temptations are to either disengage completely, or find ourselves being influenced more and more by the world.
In this book, godly, clear-thinking women talk about a range of areas of life and culture. They help us to be thoughtful about films, books, and the media; set out biblical principles for approaching topics such as body image and racism; and encourage us to shape the world around us for Christ—becoming beautifully distinct.
This book include chapters from: Kelly Needham, Jen Wilkin, Erin Davis, Courtney Reissig, Jackie Hill Perry, Dannah Gresh, Jenny Yang, Chelsea Sobolik, and Karen Swallow Prior

““If it’s true that what we chase shapes our race, then how we see the world around us really matters. Beautifully Distinct is a much-needed resource that directs the way we engage with culture as women of God, and I’m grateful to these sisters for lending their wisdom—for such a time as this.”

“Beautifully Distinct is an important resource on culture written by Christian women. These authors bring a helpful perspective as they consider how being a disciple of Jesus Christ affects every area of our lives. Their insights will challenge and encourage every reader.”
Phillip Bethancourt
Executive Vice President, Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission
“For the busy woman who wants to engage and live a life of biblical significance but feels unprepared, this book is for you! Trillia Newbell has done a wonderful job of recruiting women who can help us evaluate culture and articulate biblical truth as we learn to think, listen and speak to a world that in many ways has lost its mooring. Anchored in Scripture, this book will be a tool you will reference often. No more retreating: it is time for us to engage and be beautifully distinct! ”
Donna Gaines
Editor, A Daily Women's Devotional; Founder and President, ARISE2Read
“The women who have written in this book know what it means to be in this world but not of it. Through their thoughtful reflections, they demonstrate how our salvation changes not just us, but also the way we relate to the culture around us. These are women I respect and feel privileged to learn from. ”
