Want to be a Woman Living Well??? There's a book for that lol

There are so many great things that I can say about this book by Courtney Joseph, blogger at womenlivingwell.org. I've been reading and re-reading many parts and doing tons of highlighting and marking. The book is broken down into 4 parts: Your walk with the King, Your marriage, your parenting and your homemaking. In the section about marriage there is a 10 day challenge to do to for you husband called the "completing him" marriage challenge. I can't wait to try that out with hubs when he gets home. One of my favorite chapters was the Never Walk Alone (chapter 5) because I'm still newish to my faith and I'm always looking for ways to get stronger in that area, and Courtney lists many great ways to do that. I also like that she uses the kids' time outs as time to study Scripture. I think that will be something that I start to try with D. I was shocked to find out that her parents' didn't let her watch movies above a G rating, but was in awe of that fact, I forget that not everyone has the same upbringing. I'm working my way through the companion study guide that she offered on her blog to help me get through this book. I think that any one of faith would benefit from reading the sections that pertain to her life.


 

Book Description

Women desire to live well. However, living well in this modern world is a challenge. The pace of life, along with the new front porch of social media, has changed the landscape of our lives. Women have been told for far too long that being on the go and accumulating more things will make their lives full. As a result, we grasp for the wrong things in life and come up empty.
God created us to walk with him; to know him and to be loved by him. He is our living well and when we drink from the water he continually provides, it will change us. Our marriages, our parenting, and our homemaking will be transformed.
Mommy-blogger Courtney Joseph is a cheerful realist. She tackles the challenge of holding onto vintage values in a modern world, starting with the keys to protecting our walk with God. No subject is off-limits as she moves on to marriage, parenting, and household management.
Rooted in the Bible, her practical approach includes tons of tips that are perfect for busy moms, including:
  • Simple Solutions for Studying God’s Word
  • How to Handle Marriage, Parenting, and Homemaking in a Digital Age
  • 10 Steps to Completing Your Husband
  • Dealing With Disappointed Expectations in Motherhood
  • Creating Routines that Bring Rest
  • Pursuing the Discipline and Diligence of the Proverbs 31 Woman
There is nothing more important than fostering your faith, building your marriage, training your children, and creating a haven for your family. Women Living Well is a clear and personal guide to making the most of these precious responsibilities.
