If you suspect you're having a midlife crisis, you're not alone. If you're a Christian woman who wonders if it's wrong for a Christian to feel depleted, hopeless, lost, stuck, or unable to discern what it is God wants her to do next in life, you are one of many. You are not weak, crazy, or unspiritual to look for help for your midlife crisis dilemma.
Part One discusses just how common the issue is and uncovers many of the associated dilemmas. Topics discussed include the physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual dilemmas midlife women face.
Part Two outlines 16 Essential Steps a woman can begin taking right away to find the satisfying answers she's looking for.
Also included are 26 Conclusions that are worthwhile for all women. All is supported with Biblical references. A self-coaching exercise is included at the end of each chapter.
This Midlife Crisis Checklist is designed to supplement the book "16 Essential Steps to Help You Walk through Your Midlife Crisis."
These checklists can be used alone or with the main book. There is a brief introduction of each list, and each list is followed with a suggested exercise.
These self-assessment checklists are designed to help the Christian woman make sense of midlife-crisis-type feelings.
There's a common cry among “the sisterhood of midlife Christian women” to the point they feel they may be having a midlife crisis. This cry is mingled with the moods and challenges of perimenopause, menopause, life phase changes, and the empty nest. The cry occurs when women find themselves increasingly frustrated by not able to narrow down one new meaningful life calling for their next life phase. That leads them to ask, “What’s Next?”
The author helps women answer the question “What’s Next?” in midlife by taking them through several exercises designed to help them identify their top five essential passions. The exercises aren’t just run-of-the-mill assessments. They aren’t about finding your strengths or even about your spiritual gifts. The passions you’ll identify are more than things you’re good at. They are part of how God has wired you. They are things you feel are essential to your well-being. They may include interests that have been dormant for some time or that were put on the back burner. It's time to identify them and stir them.
When you begin to develop your passions and release them to God, he will use them in ways you might never have imagined.
