Women Mentoring Women: Ways to Start, Maintain and Expand a Biblical Women's Ministry [Paperback]

Vickie Kraft (Author), Gwynne Johnson (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: January 1, 2003

The 21st Century has brought a new urgency for Christian women to search for meaningful relationships whee they can live out their faith. This is due in part to our increasingly secular lifestyle and the radical changes in marriage and family life that have isolated and discouraged many women. Women Mentoring Women offers the solution to a chronic weakness in churches: the lack of involvement of wives, sisters, mothers, and daughters in vital women's ministries.

4.0 out of 5 stars Organized, Useful, but the book prefer's stay-at home mom's, January 27, 1998

By A Customer

This review is from: Women Mentoring Women: Ways to Start, Maintain, and Expand a Biblical Women's Ministry (Paperback)

I liked the book for its organization, and practical way it presented all the areas of Women's Ministry, etc. But I was a little put off by the focused preference for women to be stay-at home moms, almost as if it were a sin to work outside the home, which it isn't. Also the book had a whole appendix on how day care for children is bad -- which was written by a man.

I found this book incredibly valueable in beginning an effective and enjoyable women's ministry at our church! Not only are there examples of flyers, surveys and information sheets, there are ideas for fellowships, the best time to have them and even how to gather ideas from the ladies at your church. I have put many of their ideas to work and with great success. There are so many good suggestions that your imagination is bound to be sparked and you will soon have a thriving ladies ministry of your own!

I feel the book has a lot to give. The Heart to Heart Ministry was wonderful. I feel you can apply a lot of the information in the book. The Day Care section should have been more in line of helping not talking about things women already fear. My Church did use the surveys and they were a great sucess. Women need to apply things in the book that will help them grow and leave those things that is not for them.
