Paris Women's Day: Beauty Found in Inner Peace

Earlier this month the women of L'Assemblée Chrétienne de Paris, known by our family of churches as the Paris Church of Christ, had its second annual Women's Day since 2003. Like last year, we chose to host our special event on the International Women's Day, March 8, a day recognized globally and focusing on women's rights, achievements, and their struggle for gender equality. While these struggles remain for women around the world, we as disciples recognize the victory we already have in Jesus and our ultimate worth in him and in his church. Still, we thought it appropriate to celebrate our being women, created in the image of God himself, all the while addressing some of the unique spiritual challenges we face as the more delicate gender.
