A Brief Theology of Periods

Yes, Really

By: Rachel Jones

Narrated by: Rachel Jones

The average woman has 500 periods in her lifetime. And whether yours are mildly annoying, utterly debilitating, or emotionally complicated, most of us have at one time or another asked: Why?! This warm, light-hearted, real, honest, and at times surprising book gives a biblical perspective on menstruation, as well as a whole lot more.

Beginning with periods, Rachel Jones takes listeners on an adventure in theology, weaving together wide-ranging reflections on the nature of our bodies, the passing of time, the purpose of pain, and the meaning of life. One thing is for sure: You’ve never listened to a Christian book quite like this one. Whether you’re in need of hope and help, or are just downright curious, you’ll be refreshed and encouraged by this book. As Rachel puts it, “Whoever you are, my aim is that you reach the end of this book celebrating who God has made you, how God has saved you, and the fact that he speaks liberating and positive truth into all of life’s experiences (even periods).”

Witty and theological! Loved it!

Christian women will love these biblical discussions around things so natural and common to our gender. Christian men will gain insight, understanding, and compassion for the women in their lives. I thoroughly enjoyed and appreciated this book.

The Book I Needed!

This book was just the book I needed.

I plan to purchase a hard copy and will be sharing with my daughters.

The last chapter? Wow.

(I listened on Audible. I recommend listening at 1.25x or even a bit faster.)

I needed this!

Whether you are a woman or a man, you need to read this. It will give you a divine perspective of periods.
