Know Who You Are Live Like It Matters – Book Review
We live in a topsy turvy world – one that is constantly blurring the boundaries between what is right and wrong, one that is continuously trying to redefine who we are – and our children are on the frontlines of those attacks.
As parents, it’s more critical than ever that we raise children whose foundations are firm – whose values are clear-cut – whose identity is not based upon the constantly shifting sands of what others think about us, measure us, or define us.
Tim Tebow knows the importance of this firsthand. Raised by parents who were pioneers in the homeschooling movement and faced with intense public scrutiny throughout his professional career, Tim says:
There is only one thing, one person, who defines your identity. His name is Jesus Christ.
Tim’s latest book, Know Who You Are, Live Like It Matters: A Homeschooler’s Interactive Guide To Discovering Your True Identity is written specifically to encourage homeschool students to examine their identity in Christ through 36 weeks of lessons, each based on a key Scripture, that explore the passage in detail and encourage students to explore their feelings through reflective journaling.
Expressive writing in a personal and meaningful way positively impacts health, well-being, and self development. It can put us in a better mood. It can help us process tough situations. It can challenge us to make good changes. It can pave the way for a more impactful future.
The “lessons” are devotional-like in their reading, and the writing exercises contain a variety of creative activities including journaling, prayers, tweeting and more!
Although Tim developed Know Who You Are specifically as a way to give back to the homeschooling community which he feels gave so much to him, I think that anyone could enjoy and benefit from reading and completing the journaling exercises in this book!
I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.
