Imagine where the Church would be today if the men in it were respected as they ought to be by their wives. What power would God unleash through godly men who were respected in their homes?

In this short book, Nancy Wilson exhorts wives to stop focusing on their husbands' problems and shortcomings and to look at their own responsibilities and learn the contentment which the Bible continually exhorts us to.

This book is part of the Canon Press series of books on the family, which has helped many people trying to deal with the on the ground messes that come with sinners living under the same roof. This book on marriage for women reminds us to keep our eyes fixed on what the Bible defines as our duties and not on the modern lies which flatter us.

Used by thousands, Canon’s Family Series provides the building blocks for a home centered on Jesus. The call to build a beautiful home is both an honor and a challenge. In this simple guide, Nancy Wilson draws on decades of experience to give Christian moms practical principles on childbirth, education, discipline, and more. What does a godly living room look like? Kitchen? Front porch? Junk drawer? Pastor Douglas Wilson takes the whole family on a room-by-room tour of a Christian house, showing how selflessness transforms everything. Christian parents should raise their kids with prayer, faith, and confidence. This accessible and challenging study by pastor Douglas Wilson lays out what God requires and promises as you parent your children. Current dating practices leave young people emotionally and spiritually wrecked. Pastor Douglas Wilson offers men and women biblical truth for honoring God, their parents, and one another as they pursue long-lasting relationships. “Is this radical Christianity? No. This is basic Christianity.” Longtime wife and mother Nancy Wilson presents the counterintuitive way Christian wives can maximize freedom and happiness in their marriage: respect their man.

These are our top sellers, presenting God’s grace and truth for every person at every moment. Normal day-to-day life with kids at early ages can be exhausting. Rachel Jankovic, mother of seven, provides personal stories and practical advice on how to persevere in the high but demanding call of motherhood. Our unchristian world preaches to men a gospel of weakness and fragility. Michael Foster and Bnonn Tenant challenge men to embrace what God made them: dangerous leaders, god-fearing husbands, inspiring fathers, loyal friends. How can you be a faithful woman in the unfolding consequences of feminism’s war against femininity? Rebekah Merkle focuses on God’s design for women, encouraging you to be a godly mom, a loving wife, and a bold entrepreneur. God designed the household as his kingdom’s command center—and Christians can choose to work either with or against God’s design. In this truly original book, C.R. Wiley unlocks the deep, eschatological centrality of the household. “This book is nothing less than a proclamation of the Gospel as embodied in family life.” Pastor Douglas Wilson gets at the heart of the family, revealing how listening to the Gospel transforms the way we disciple and care for our children’s souls."

These are our top sellers, presenting God’s grace and truth for every person at every moment. How do you raise great men, ready for work, marriage, worship, and suffering? Pastor and father Douglas Wilson gives practical advice on how to mold your boys into powerful servants of God, addressing everything from school to sports to sex. Wisdom. Courage. Modesty. In fifteen brief lessons, Nancy Wilson outlines the virtues of a godly woman. Suitable for small group bible studies or personal devotionals, this practical guide offers clarity and encouragement to women of all ages. Cooking for crowds is a great but tough ministry opportunity, requiring tons of stress, money, and mental math (0.75 tsp. x 5 = 3.75 tsp = 1.25 tbsps). Drawing on long experience, Rebekah Merkle provides big recipes that are quick, cheap, and classy. One of the self-centered ideas shaping our culture is that you are enough. You are not enough, Rachel Jankovic says. Pretending differently makes true happiness impossible. But in Christ, you can find more meaning and love than you ever hoped for. “You can’t score points until you have the ball. And reformers will not have the ball until they have a culture.” America needs redeeming change. Here’s how to do it, from one of our time’s most effective reformers.

Started a mommy book club with some friends and have been working our way through lots of different (usually faith based) mom/wife/ homemaker books. This has been one of my favorites and might even be my favorite author so far. Super succinct and insightful, doesn’t mince words (she takes your lack of “free time” as a mom seriously!). Even in working to correct bad thinking or actions she always points back to the grace of Christ. So many things that I have taken to heart in correction for myself and yet this book leaves me feeling so refreshed and filled up to love my husband, children and care of my home even better, not as a burden.

I have read almost all of the books that Nancy (and her daughters) have written. I am always happy to see the conversational style of writing that Nancy uses. I think that this book makes a good applications of the spiritual and practical duties of Christian wives and mothers. Although, I do understand that the entire Wilson family is frequently under speculation, I have found good use of their literature on biblical roles of men and women!

God has a blueprint for how we are to live our lives and most of our problems are a result for not following the most basic of his principles. I believe the state of our world today is the result of men and women not fulfilling these rolls. Nancy write a matter-of-fact, non- condemning, encouraging reminder of who we are to be as Christian women.

Even though I am 68 years old, the Lord led me to read this book. He knew that I would find gems on each page. Reading this book has enriched and blessed my life, and I learned a few things even at my age. Read this book Christian ladies and receive the blessings that await you. I know that it will richly bless you!

Being a Christian wife perfectly is not possible but humbling ourselves to try being a wife biblically is. Nancy Wilson speaks hard truths to women today that most likely have not been taught much less even considered such things. Read her words, ask the Lord to humble you & challenge you to apply what she describes here for us; what it ought to look like to live as a biblical wife unto God, unto our husbands & and before our children and the world to see Gods goodness lived out. What would the church, the world be like if husbands and wives lived as He said to in His scriptures? -Sarah Anglen

Reviewed in Canada on April 29, 2023
‘The Fruit of Her Hands’ was excellent and exceeded my expectations as far as the quality of what was written. Very challenging and well written.
However, my copy is completely backwards. When I open the cover, I’m brought to the last page of the book. I have to go to the back of the book and read back to front.
If the book content was just mediocre, I’d never have finished it for this reason, and while dealing with that was frustrating, it was worth the read by far.

Reviewed in Canada on October 14, 2019
This book is a wonderfully freeing for anyone who will read with the prayerful consideration of Scripture and not the current cultural teachings of many worldly and even Christian teachers. Nancy paints the picture of rest for each woman within the beauty of her role. I will recommend this book to all women, and know it will not be received well by many, but my prayer is that at some point, God will use this work in each woman’s life, who does read it, including mine.
Thank you Mrs. Wilson for your courage and love for both God, your husband, your family, and me.
