The Excellent Wife: A Biblical Perspective Audiobook (Unabridged)

" The is the most thorough and practical and biblical book I have read on the subject. I have shared this book with many women and have taught the book several times to our college women. We have all benefited greatly from Martha Peace's insights. The book can be used as a handbook for being a wife and great to refer back to on particuar subjects when the occasion arises. "

" I really wanted to give it a 3 1/2 star rating. I liked it, am glad I read it and did the study but had a few hesitations. "

" A sweet man gave this book to me on the first day we met in person. It was quite obvious that he was interested in pursuing me. I read the book and kept it for some time, but then I donated it. I learned that I need to keep working on my relationship with the Lord. A couple years earlier, another man suggested that I read it and I thought he was crazy. "

" Good teaching, but unfortunately, this in the wrong hands could serve to browbeat women. Sensitively applied with an eye to both holiness and genuine caring in both partners, could work. "

" This book was a requirement for our marriage counceling. It opened my eyes to many things...but is not perfectly on track with my personal convictions. "

" Listened to on CD. Just ok for me. Liked her use of scripture, but the book was dry. "

" Had a lot of good information. As typical with books based on scripture you have to look everything up because the author adds their own "interpretation" of doctrine. This was mostly noticed in the defining of the Trinity. But other than that it was spot on as far as the defining of a woman's role in the marriage and home. It is not drudgery to be a wife, but a blessing! Wish more women understood this. "

" Religious bondage. Pure and simple. "

" It was excellent. Very Biblical, convicting, and practical, giving even the toughest situations. It is not just applicable to married women, but to any woman seeking to be godly. "

" While she may have some points, most of what she has said in this book is NOT biblically sound at all. "

" This is an excellent book for any Christian woman thinking about getting married. It really helped me understand the Biblical perspective of submission. It also gave me a better understanding of the principles outlined in Matthew 18. "

" Awesome! Challenging and for the serious Christian wife. I have been very blessed by this book and believe that it has played a huge part in saving my marriage! Highly recommend! "

" One of the best books I've ever read! There are great charts with specific ways to "put off" wrong attitudes and "put on" God-honoring attitudes. For wives who are struggling, or just want to grow in their love and respect for their husband, I highly recommend this book. "

" Honestly I couldn't even get through it. I think most if not all of what she says is true, but her tone lacks grace. I'll probably puerto it & try to at least skim the rest, but I how there is something our there that communicates a bit more grace while still upholding truth. "
