The Relief of Imperfection: For Women Who Try Too Hard to Make it Just Right
By Annie A. Lockhart
For the woman who has worked on projects from her sick bed, or who is constantly being told to slow down, or believes she must run herself ragged to be a good mother, sister, friend, saint—this book is for you.
The Relief of Imperfection is for the many caring women who believe that it is possible to accomplish textbook-perfect emotional responses if we just do life
right.Webb explores different types of perfectionism from a theological standpoint. She contends that many Christian women try to live perfectly to honor God, but instead unconsciously play the role of God in the lives of their children, husband, family, and their congregations.
