1: An excellent read for all Christian women
As women in this time and age we would take heed to God's Word in how we should live. This book is a most useful tool along side of the Holy Scriptures to see just how very different is the ways of the world in comparison to what God teaches us. I have found as i apply these sound Biblical teachings I am growing in the grace and knowledge of the Lord. I would strongly advise giving this book to every young woman before she gets married.

2: The Excellent wife work book
I love the work book. The only negative thing i have to say is that I ordered the Book and Workbook on the same day in the same order and it took the workbook 2 weeks longer to get here. I think that should be worked on.

3: Not a good book for wives!
The Excellent Wife may contain some good, valuable information. However, if you are married, you must not buy into the teaching that we, as wives, have Biblical authority over our husbands. There is not gentle rebuking from wife to husband; there is no room for a wife to stand over her husband in any authority whatsoever at any time in a marriage. Our husbands are our covering, our protection, and our authority-blessed by God and used by God to bless us. Please consider turning to Scripture yourself to see all the amazing truths about marriage rather than reading The Excellent Wife. If you must read a book other than the Bible, please consider "Created to Be His Helpmeet". It is more doctrinally true to what the Bible teaches about marriage and offers much deeper teachings.

4: MUST have for every wife and wife to be!
One of the most convicting books I've ever read. I've read it more than once and something new jumps out at me each time. I appreciate that it is not "sugar coated" to make me have "warm fuzzy feelings". It's the deep truth from God's word. Many times I've read something from this book that stings. Even thought the "sting" might be there, I've been blessed by that "sting". I've been encouraged through this book to allow myself to be molded by God and strengthened in Christ. This is a book that will ROCK your world. Read it slow. Take it in. Bring it all back to scripture and see that it lines up. This book, through Christ, has made a very large impact in my life. It is a book that keeps giving. It continues to impact my life the more I read it. If you start to read it and have disagreements, first state what your disagreement is. If that sentence has "I" in it, adjust your way of thinking to be God centered instead of self-centered and give it another chance. This is by far my #1 recommended book to any woman alive!

5: WOW!
WOW! Is about all I can say. This is not an easy read. This is an in your face convicting manual on How to be a Godly wife. It is covered with Scripture and Martha Peace does an excellent job in relating the issues to her experiences as a wife. My small group is reading this & it always leads to great discussions. It is also nice to have the accountability of reading when things get to tough to read.
