In Undone, she includes personal stories from fifteen women that deal with the different roles we play in life: daughter, sister, bride, and mother. With each story there's a related verse from Scripture you're invited to read reflectively three times, thus doing a form of Lectio Divina. Then you're asked a series of questions that you're encouraged to answer in a journal.
This book pleasantly reminded me of a women's retreat I attended that focused on Mary, Undoer of Knots. As one activity on the weekend, we tied a knot and said a prayer for each major difficulty in our lives. In the days and weeks to come, we took someone else's string and untied their knots while lifting them up in prayer. It was a great way to visualize Mary working on our knots.
The stories are powerful and address quite a range of tough topics. The message of hope is one we all need to hear. The shorter length of the stories makes this an easy book to read. The Lectio Divina and journaling help the reader meditate on Scripture and contemplate how God's been at work in our own lives.
I recommend Undone for all women--not just for those who are married with children.
