Excellent Book

Excellent Book!! I really enjoyed it, and as a new wife got a lot out of it!

Great Book for married women!

I have been married for two years. This book was given to me at my bridal shower. However, I recently picked it up to read. I believe that I could have prevented some disagreements if I had taken the opportunity to read this book earlier on. The author was candid in indicating that she had some issues with some of these suggestions. But she prayed to God for help in applying these techniques. I have not completed the book as yet. However, I plan to purchase a few of these books to distribute to women in the Married Couples Ministry at my church. I see how, as women, we can overcome many obstacles in our marriage if we are open to God's leading for our marriage. The biggest suggestion I will take from this book is to "seek first the kingdom of God, and the other things will be added.." When we focus our attention on God and what He requires from us, we spend less time focussing on other issues. Great book!

A good perspective.

Even though this book is written by a woman it gives great insight into how the things that women say to their husbands can have a good or bad effect on them. I have read many books on the woman's role in marriage, but this one gives good real life stories and suggestions and ways to begin changing your ways and ways of thinking to truly become the wife God intended you to be.

Must Read - couldn't put it down

This book is an absolute read for those already married ladies or those engaged to be married and desiring a Godly relationship with her husband. I could not put this book down and would recommend it for all women (married or not). I desire a marriage in which I am the wife that God intended for my husband. This book will be a wonderful companion to the Word of God throughout my marriage.

Great book for group Bible Study!

Melanie's book is a very transparent and honest work flowing from her devotion to Jesus Christ. She offers practical advice for Godly wives repeatedly directing the reader to God's Word for guidance and purpose for marriage. My experience in leading a group of 25 women in this study has been one of my best experiences in group study. We were blessed by the author's own experiences that parallelled our own which allowed us to see ourselves in the pages. The discussion questions provided for each chapter encouraged open and honest discussion all the while directing us to Scripture and challenging us to strive for holiness. Whether you are seeking restoration for a wounded marriage or just desire a closer walk with Christ, this is the book for you. Thank you, Melanie, for offering your gifts to God initiating healing through the power of His Word and the power of your honest testimony!
