As lines are continually blurred by our culture, men and women are losing their sense of identity and purpose, and ideas of what makes men and women different are being both eroded and ridiculed. But while the culture changes, God does not. He has laid down in His Word what it means to be a woman, and what her mission in life is to be. John Angell James, a 19th century Congregational preacher from England, wrote a classic on Christian womanhood under the title Female Piety (also available from Soli Deo Gloria). This booklet is excerpted from that work.
The Fruit of Her Hands
[Paperback] by Nancy Wilson
$8.50
Imagine where the church would be today if the men in it were respected as they ought to be by their wives. What power would God unleash through godly men who were respected in their homes? Wives, instead of focusing on your husband's problems and shortcomings, look at what you are supposed to be doing yourself.
In the Song of Solomon we read, "Like an apple tree among the trees of the woods, so is my beloved among the sons." So what is your perspective when you look at your husband? Is it biblical or does it stem from all those modern lies which surround us?
Praise Her in the Gates: The Calling of Christian Motherhood
[Paperback] by Nancy Wilson
$9.00
For a Christian, motherhood is the subtle art of building a house in grace-"The wise woman builds her house, but the foolish pulls it down with her hands." (Prov. 4:1). Each day's work is significant, for it contributes toward the long-term plan. Each nail helps a house stand in a storm. But motherhood isn't a simple formula. Building a home-childbirth, education, discipline-requires holy joy and a love of beauty. The mother who fears God does not fear the future.
