5.0 out of 5 stars A Titus 2 study, August 30, 2006

By	Chatelaine "HiddenArtist" (Connecticut, USA) - See all my reviews

This book is based on what Elizabeth George calls "10 essentials for Godly living" taken from the list of things the older women are to teach the younger women in Titus 2. She reminds us that Titus 2 tells us we are to be doing things - if we are older women, we are to be practicing these things and teaching them to younger women. If we are younger women, we are to be learning and practicing these things. She points out that we will always be in both categories. There will always be older women to learn from, and there will always be younger women we can help and teach. Two chapters are devoted to each "essential." The first is about the what and why, and also the who and where. What is this goodness, for example, that we are called to? Why are we called to this? To whom should we show goodness? The second chapter is the application of the first - the how. Mrs. George is full of suggestions and lists and Scripture verses to help implement each "essential." The book is really an older woman's effort to teach younger women the things listed in Titus 2, which is exactly what is commanded inthe passage!

5.0 out of 5 stars Investing in the Next Generation of Women, February 3, 2007

By	K. A. Alphs (USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

I have an older girlfriend who invested an incredible three years of her life mentoring me. She was a firm believer in passing the legacy of faith onto the next generation of women. In her book "A Woman's High Calling" Elizabeth George covers the topic of mentoring women. The book is beautifully written in Elizabeth's one on one style of conversation. She guides the reader through the "10 Essentials for Godly Living." There is a study guide which you can purchase separately to use for individual or group study. This is an excellant resource for those women who feel led to mentor the next generation of women.
