ABSTRACT
All God Chicks women are envisioned as youthful warriors possessing healthy, beautiful bodies who engage in numerous relational and global struggles as agents of God. The term post-feminism has been used by sociologists of religion and feminist thinkers in various ways to identify how women in Western culture construct selves amidst competing, incongruous roles and fractured institutional expectations. The aggressively forceful image entrained by the Warrior Chicks persona implies an upper boundary of age regarding what kind of woman can successfully fulfil God Chicks expectations of role performance. Even more, the image of a Warrior Chick suggests that women always have the capacity to make choices to use their time and energy for ministry. Essentially, Holly Wagner and her cadre of volunteers encourage warrior princess God Chicks to pursue multiple roles and caretaking responsibilities, reinforcing a somewhat manic gendered lifestyle and identity for all women, including those in their 60s, 70s, and beyond.
