Raising a Daughter After God's Own Heart



In my early days of being a new Christian mom I was hungry for God's truth and looked for someone to mentor me. The Lord did bring a "real life" mentor into my life who diligently taught me the basics (God is good) and He also brought mentors via books.

One of my favorite books that I got to read when I was a new Christian was A Woman After God's Own Heart and wonderful book that really helped me to lay a firm foundation in biblical womanhood. I went on to read voraciously her many other books such as A Woman's High Calling (still a favorite), Life Management for Busy Woman and many more. Now my latest read that sits on my nightstand from her is this one:




Elizabeth is a powerful author in that her love and gentleness and gift for teaching really oozes out of every page.  She teaches in depth how we must be the example to our daughters of a godly and do our part in raising them, however hard that might be. She gives all kinds of wonderful examples with chapters that include topics such as:

The Prayer Warrior
The Sower of Seed
The Heart of a Sower
The Word of a Sower
Gearing Up for Battle
The Homebuilder
The Teacher 
The Model
The Mentor
The Cheerleader
The Coach
The Shepherd

and more!


Parenting is a tough job and raising daughters and sons to know the Lord is a high calling.  It is great to have wonderful Titus 2 guides to lovingly help us along the way. You can find this wholeheartedly encouraging book right HERE.


Have a blessed day building up your sacred homes!
