‘It’s my daughter’s 7th birthday on International Women’s Day and I want her to be exposed to amazing women who have inspired me throughout history’
‘This year’s theme for International Women’s Day particularly excites me in that it’s inclusive of all ages, as I believe we’re never too young to receive truth. Reinforcement of sound doctrine is essential in an age of cultural promiscuity where the boundaries of identity are disputed,’ says Hannah Wickens.
A league of extraordinary women
Here at Woman Alive, we celebrate every woman in every issue (this includes you!) and as part of our International Women’s Day issue, we’ve chosen eight ‘ordinary’ women to recognise for their inspirational workplace ministries
‘My family gave up buying new clothes two years ago, and we may never go back.’
‘At the end of 2021 we decided the best way to love our global neighbours in the way we dressed was to stop buying new clothes. Being an all or nothing person, I gallantly committed our family to this endeavour for a year!’ says Kezia Neusch, as she shares what happened next.
I know God is a healer, but he hasn't healed me - and that's okay
‘If I spend every waking moment focused on the life I might have after God heals me, there is the very real possibility that I will miss out on everything he has planned for me right here and now in the midst of my circumstances,’ says Danielle Finch.
If it takes a village to raise a child, what does the Bible say about the role of an aunt?
As Princess Eugenie becomes an aunt again, Woman Alive deputy editor Jemimah Wright considers her own relationship with her nieces.
Relationships
Did you know sex can be illegal within marriage?
‘Reproductive coercion is a form of gender-based violence, it can take place both outside of and within married relationships and as a form of domestic abuse it affects Christian women at a similar rate to non-Christian women,’ says Sally Hope.

What is the point of Lent?
‘I find myself somewhat irritated with Lent. Heresy? I don’t think so. It just feels too self-focused for my liking – about what I can achieve, as if that somehow makes me more worthy of God’s love and attention. It can appear to be all about my own self-effort; works rather than faith,’ says Jenny Sanders.
