If you follow football in any capacity, you probably know the name Tim Tebow. Tim's wife, Demi Tebow, is a native of South Africa and took home the Miss Universe crown in 2017. The pair married in 2020 and Demi has gone on to pen a couple books over the years, her latest being a 100-day devotional book titled Knowing Who You Are Because of Who God Is: 100 Days to Unbreakable Faith.

Knowing Who You Are Because of Who God Is is a beautiful, 214-page hardcover book with a lovely green leaf accent scattered throughout. The devotionals inside are organized by week - 20 in total, broken down into 5 parts (one per day) each: Plot, Dig, Plant, Grow and Flourish. Right out of the gate, Demi tells the story of how she lost the Miss Universe crown, which, honestly, is something very few readers can probably relate to. But she ties it to the topic of our identity and label, which is what's relatable, and something most readers will have experience with. However, the reader may have to work a little harder to see how they can apply her unique experiences to their day-to-day. Her more extravagant lifestyle doesn't exactly invalidate her worldview or faith journey, but a stay-at-home mom reading this probably can't relate to having her very own support team that includes her own stylist, videographer and social media manager.

Also, while it's not made obvious by the title or the description on the back of the book, these stories are largely directed toward her fellow women. The stories aren't made exclusive to them, but it's definitely a little alienating for male readers -- especially when the prayers at the end of any given devotional are specifically addressed to women (Like "Lord, help this beloved woman..." for example), or she'll address the reader directly, "To every woman reading this..."

It's unfortunate that an unrelatable story like her losing her Miss Universe crown is the first one you read (although she ends up referencing it a lot all throughout the book), because Demi does tell other stories from her life that are far more relatable. One such story about sharing Thanksgiving with Tim's big family, after becoming a new member of his family, is focused on the struggle to fit in, and it definitely is one we all have experienced in some way. She offers questions during the studies, too, to encourage readers to dig a little deeper, and then will dwell on scriptures - like memorizing Psalm 139:13-14, John 3:16, or Romans 8:1 - which is a really nice touch.

But not every devotional is inspired by Demi's own life. One week is devoted to a story about Jesus from John 21:18-19, which is a welcome deviation. Another week addresses the story of Ruth, or Paul's letter to the Philippians. Demi has some good insights on these passages, and her writing style is easy to read.

The book is split up into two sets of 10 weeks. First is "Knowing Who You Are," which covers topics like shame, identity, wisdom, weakness, and purpose. The second half, titled "Because of Who God is," includes topics on God's goodness, faithfulness, ever-present help, and promises (and more).

Although some of the stories are still fitting, as a male reader, I probably wouldn't recommend Knowing Who You Are Because of Who God Is to the fellas. There are a lot of devotionals already out there for men. However, for women, I think Knowing Who You Are Because of Who God Is is a nice option -- that is, as long as you don't mind getting some daily inspiration from a former Miss Universe.
