I recommend this book to everyone!

This was such a pleasure to listen to and so informative. It is the first Elisabeth Elliot book I've read/listened to, and I highly recommend it! It is especially helpful for women married or soon to be married, but wonder for anyone

A beautiful exhortation to be countercultural and be a woman!

I love this format. Letters to her daughter. It seems so personal and yet so applicable to everyone of us

Solid Advice

While there were certain points I don't fully agree with, Elisabeth Elliot offers a plethora of good advice for the Christian woman. And Nan McNamara was a wonderful orator.

Should be standard reading for the newlywed wife

Within these pages are the wisdom and advice that all young women should be given but so rarely are. Friendly, loving, motherly, it is the sum total of one extraordinary Christian woman’s experience gleaned over a lifetime spent both in seasons of blessed singleness and blessed matrimony. Biblical womanhood is here summed up beautifully, backed by scripture and read with charm and intimacy by the narrator.

Praise God for Mrs. Elliot and the wisdom that He has given her. Lots of wonderful tidbits for all women, not just those that are wives :).
