Riassunto:

These are wild and confusing times for women. While the church and society continue to debate the proper "role" of women, many are tossed between work and family, pushed to balance all sorts of competing demands.
Yet, says insightful author Mary Ellen Ashcroft, women have long known how to devote their attention to many things at once. "Like the woman quilting from old scraps of clothing, women know how to improvise. They often take the less-than-perfect materials that they are handed and make something beautiful."
So rather than rehearse tired and frustrating debates, Balancing Act refreshingly explores issues of calling and identity. It shows how once a woman understands what God has called her to and who she is, difficult struggles of work and family sort themselves out.
