All I Need Is Jesus and a Good Pair of Jeans: The Tired Supergirl's Search for Grace

Susanna Foth Aughtmon's book follows a Christian woman who feels pressure to keep up a flawless faith, a tidy family life, and a perfect appearance. Writing with humor, she admits to her own struggles with pride, worry, tiredness, appearance, envy, and a fondness for chocolate. Each chapter introduces a personal opponent, such as a figure named Worry Man or a character called Mrs. Prideful, who suggests she is falling short of what she could be. Her answer in every case is scripture and the reassurance of God's grace. The result is a lighthearted look at everyday faith for women who feel they are always failing to measure up.
