Seven Life Principles for Every Woman: Refreshing Ways to Prioritize Your Life [Hardcover]

Sharon E. Jaynes (Author), Lysa M. TerKeurst (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: June 1, 2001

The "ideal" woman outlined in Proverbs 31 is an intimidating standard to uphold. Yet Sharon Jaynes and Lysa TerKeurst do not believe this model is impossible to follow. The authors show how keeping a home is a high and God-honoring calling for business women as well as those who stay home. Through practical advice, Jaynes and TerKeurst outline how women can fulfill the high calling God has placed on their lives.

5.0 out of 5 stars Proverbs Thirty-One Woman, October 13, 2001

By

This review is from: Seven Life Principles for Every Woman: Refreshing Ways to Prioritize Your Life (Hardcover)

Seven Life Principles for Every Woman is a wellspring of practical, powerful, and pertinent
Biblical counsel about what it means to be a godly woman. Authors Sharon Jaynes and Lysa
TerKeurst have opened floodgates of wisdom by employing a fascinating metaphor about seven
"principle-pools" from which women can dip for refreshment and refocusing on their God-
given roles and responsibilities. Using the "Proverbs Thirty-One Woman" as their model,
they encourage and enable women to prioritize and reach realistic goals for revering Jesus,
honoring their husbands, nurturing their relationships with their children and friends, creating
welcoming homes, and contributing to their communities. They write with incredible passion
and often surprising poignancy, as they reveal the depths of their hearts. One thing is certain:
Sharon and Lysa have dipped their pens into living water, writing an inspired book whose
ripples will be felt for years to come. As they prepare women to become vessels into which the
Spirit of the living Christ is poured, His blessings will overflow to the lives they touch, and
continue cascading throughout the generations.
