A Woman After God's Own Heart Paperback – February 1, 2015

This is an amazing book. It’s simple, well executed and provides practical advice for the daily life of a woman. It speaks to women in all seasons of life. It’s uplifting , encouraging and refreshing. I recommended it to my Bible study and even feel inspired to start a faith based book club with my group. Elizabeth George makes you feel like she’s sitting right across from you. Grab a cup of coffee or tea and soak in the blessings. This is a book worth spending time with and will change how you think about your days. It simply ministers to your heart especially in a time of need.

I was very surprised the good condition. This book was amazing

The book is full of wisdom and great insight. My only complaint is that it arrived with a bent front and back cover. Perhaps more attention to how things are packaged would be helpful in avoiding future problems.

This is truly a wonderful book that will inspire you to do your best in God's service. You'll find many insights to help you through your walk with the Lord as you aim to be the woman, wife, & mother who is "after God's own heart".I liked that she gave scripture so that you could look up the things she was talking about, and I found that this book will make you "straighten up and fly right" where you may find yourself lacking.You'll probably find yourself highlighting various parts of the book that touched on something you agree with or want to explore further.Do a sister a favor and gift her with a copy. Happy reading! (wish I had this book 20 years ago)

This is seriously one of the best books I've ever read (apart the Bible which is above all books). Elizabeth gives Biblical reasons for why we should do certain things and then gives practical advice/instructions. I found myself convicted and then inspired. She relates to her readers by sharing personal experiences and how she overcame issues and suggestions for you to do the same. I promise, if you read this book with an open heart that loves the Lord and doing life Biblically, you will NOT walk away empty handed. If I could, I would buy this book for every Christian woman I know.

It is a good book with some good ideas. It does have moments and tips that caused me to roll my eye but I had to chalk it up to her particular point of view and tips on what worked for her life. She presents information well throughout the book. It is definitely a book where you relish in the parts where you can strengthen your Biblical calling as a woman but use her application methods as to your individual ability. We are not all created to be robots so don't hold yourself to her standard and her calling as a wife and mother. Definitely look at her way of life as suggestions and try out the ones that seem feasible but don't be hard on yourself if her way is not for you. The book presents things as a very "Christmas Card" or "Everything is Beautiful" kind of universe that became annoying at times. I am sure she is a lovely woman that did a wonderful job raising her family but she speaks more as someone that did it all wonderfully, which I think can make a struggling reader feel a bit dejected. I considered and prayed about the things she presented and took her book as a book of suggestions and encouragement versus feeling like this book details the only way a woman can be a Godly one. We are all uniquely made and have unique gifts and life experience. Don't allow one woman's perspective and experience be the way you try to live your life. Be the best YOU and seek the face of Christ in your daily walk...Christ is the best and only example we should truly strive to emulate.

This is not an easy book for a 21st century woman to embrace. I found it somewhat redundant - the point is made time and again that every aspect of our lives as women is to be put in God's hands through prayer - but the examples actually drove home the point in entertaining ways, so it wasn't boring. The difficult part didn't come because of the Christian teachings in the book, but in the level of faith the author exhorts us to have when we place all aspects of our lives into God's care. There are plenty of scripture references to ensure that sound Biblical principles underly the author's assertions. I hghly recommend this book.

Great for a women's group
