The BEST Christian Book about having a Godly Marriage from a woman's point of view.
Published by Bob Worthen , 1 year ago
The author does an excellent job in quoting from the Bible to teach wives about their Godly role as their husband's helpmate. Society has gone way off the rails and destroyed many would be happy marriages. This book can help get wives back to God and his superior way of living by teaching straight from the Holy Bible. It is awesome!

I'm so grateful I found this little book in our church library. In fact I loved it so much I purchased a copy for myself. This is really key for any woman or young girl to read to prepare for marriage. It is VERY biblical and gives us the right perspective on how we are to view our husbands/future husbands as well as how to be biblically submissive to them. Wonderful book!
What a Helpful Book!

This book is a lifesaver for the woman trying to understand the seeming dicotomy of "neither male nor female" and "let the woman be in submission." The author does an excellent job of showing the difference in submission and subservience. She really has some insight into the mind and intent of the apostle Paul.I highly recommend this book to anyone struggling with submission to an unsaved husband or one who is not walking closely with the Lord. It can save your marriage and even improve a good marriage. HUSBANDS should read it too!
Inspiring

I do not agree with some other reviews I read here which state that the author is saying to submit yourself into sin if your husband so requires as well as that a wife can't have a direct personal relationship with God because she must go through her husband. The author does not say these things at all. This book is a quick read and full of inspiration for those in good or bad marriages. It clearly shows how submission is not being inferior, but trusting God - just as a man must submit to God and trust Him. In fact, the book clearly states that God would never require us to sin simply in the name of Godly submission to our husbands. This book has completely changed my perspective and shown me how I have been controlling in my marriage, nearly leading to divorce.
Excellent for married woman in a good or bad relationship.

I read this book two years ago. I reread it every now and then. I have used it in my marriage classes. I have purchased over 50 books for others. When I first began to read the book. I had to get a friend to help me through the first chapter. I "WAS" a wife who felt the word submission was sickening. I would always replaced the word submit with desire to please, according to Gen.3:16. It gave me a since of choice and control. After reading this book, I understand that submission is power and freedom. I rejoice in submitting to my husband. By subitting to my husband, I am submitting to God. Submission is Gods perfect will. God changes not, He is the same today yesterday and forever. Others have come back to thanked me for sharing this book. I called the author to personally thank her and encourage her in her ministry to women. This book is a must read for every wife and future bride.
