"The Excellent Wife" by Martha Peace has a wealth of scriptural advice for wives concerning their call to be a wife. I never thought of it this way before. The most foundational tip was to respect and be submissive to your own husband, seeking to be a "helper suitable" to him and to practice "mutual sanctification." Any woman who wants to be a better wife should read this book and start practicing the principles discussed. It also has encouragement and advice for Christian women who are married to unbelievers. It makes for a good women's Bible study.

Have you read this one? What did you think of it?
I will have to check this one out. My husband works out of town during the week and sometimes when he is home on the weekends it is hard to "hand over the reins" to him.
