4.0 out of 5 stars Practical wisdom for real wives with real husbands!, February 12, 1999

This review is from: Her Husband is Known in the Gates: Helping Your Husband Succeed (Hardcover)

I read this book while I was in a "crisis mode." We were literally building our own house with our own hands. My husband and I were needing very much to be unified in our attitudes. I remember reading this book in our makeshift bathroom inside the house structure. It was the only time that I was able to be alone! This book was very helpful to me. It caused me to reevaluate my ideas about marriage. I had read so much psycho-babble, even "Christian" psycho-babble, that was confusing. This book cuts through to the heart of the matter. In the 90s, it is difficult to reconcile the present attitudes about women, marriage, and our role with our husbands. Mrs. Cantrell comes from a thoroughly biblical standpoint with no compromise, yet makes a very practical case of how to be the best wife one can be, even in these feminist-dominated times.

This review is from: Her Husband is Known in the Gates: Helping Your Husband Succeed (Hardcover)

As the wife of an entrepreneur, I found this book to be just what I needed. The author's motivation is found in scripture and help me recognize what I need to do to help encourage my husband as a self-employed businessman. The difference it has made to me personally, as well as in my struggling marriage, is well worth the price!
