How Strong Women Can Help Their Husbands Become Godly Leaders
How does a wife follow a husband who isn't leading?
One of the deepest desires of Christian wives is the longing for their husbands to overcome sin and become godly leaders of their families. It's a yearning made all the more painful when their husbands, so often charming and cheerful in public, become withdrawn or self-absorbed at home, more interested in anything than spending quality time together.
The God Empowered Wife is a study for strong, independent wives who want to understand how they may be hindering the work God wants to do in their husband's heart. Through the practical, modern application of biblical principles, you'll learn to use your courage and intelligence to work with God, and watch your marriage come to loving and joyful life.
