This book changed my life - and changed me in many ways. Elizabeth George has written a book to help women become the woman/wife/mother that God intended. Biblical quotations are used throughout.
This book can be very frustrating at times but the content is spot on and very challenging. It really made think - and continued to prompt me long after I had read it.
I have lent this book to many of my friends and all have found it challenging and very rewarding.
I recommend this book to any Christian woman who is trying to be the best that she can be.

(What's this?)
Although familiar with other Christian authors, I have never read anything by "Elizabeth George" before and I wasn't disappointed, in fact since reading "A Woman After God's Own Heart" I have purchased some of her other books.
Essentially 'A Woman After God's Own Heart' is a Christian book detailing the ideal Christian woman's approach to life, a very enjoyable and refreshing change from the modern go-getting, high productivity style of self improvement book.
"Elizabeth George" proffers advice and help for many areas of your life, focussing on your spiritual needs (she explains that this is the most important area, if you can get this part right then often the rest will follow), then your husband, children, your home, yourself and finally your ministry.
Very readable throughout, the author writes in a very pleasing style and you do not feel that she is preaching to you, just leading you gently in the right direction. As expected there are many scriptural references, all very helpful in your search for a better life filled with peace and joy.
Give it a try ... it could do you a lot of good.

Pray every time you pick this book up!
It is a very challenging read - esspecially for the modern women. Elizabeth George very powerfully goes through every aspect of the Christian women's life, Spiritual quiet times, being a wife and mother, our private lives, and teaches us what the Bible honestly says.
It is aimed to the married women with children, but anyone would get a whole lot out of reading the book. It is esspecially good if, like me, you are a Homemaker. (For women who wrongly believe staying at home and raising children is a lesser task, this might open your eyes to the hard work, intellect, and perseverence that this godly calling requires.)
It is one of the most challenging and encouraging books I have ever read.
I will read it every year!

wonderful spiritual help but not for everyone
I read this book (the old version) years ago and found it quite an affront to my feminist mindset. I've matured since then and developed my thinking and this time, I loved it. Read more

I thoroughly enjoyed reading this book, and got a lot out of it. It really did help me to see that I am a person of worth, and my 'job' as a housewife and mum really is important. Read more

Good study book
We use this book at our Bible Study group, and it's quite good. Maybe a bit too American for me, but still has good teaching in it. Good book for a discussion group

A helpful book for any Christian woman
Albeit quite Americanised in its style, this is an equally practical and biblical book. The chapters are short enough to be read amid the busyness of life and reflected on... Read more
