Let’s get practical – how do real women live out God’s plan in 21st-century marriages? Too often submission is represented as repressive servanthood, rather than a voluntary desire to empower a husband’s leadership. And as with many things in our culture, this view of submission has found its way into our churches and marriages. In reality, women desperately want to experience the graceful waltz where both the husband and wife are in harmony - each 'dancing' their God-given role. But all too often, there are no realistic, Godly models from which to draw. Author and speaker Cindy Easley surveyed ordinary women and asked, “How does this work for you?” Specifically, how do women live out submission in her particular situation? These are their stories, from caring for a chronically ill husband to living with a nonbeliever. Each example will help married or engaged women gain appreciation for God’s will for marriage and learn to dance with the one they love.

Offering practical solutions and encouraging action, Rainey calls for a "roll-up-your-sleeves" approach to healing weary families.

Let the Lessons of the Past Pave the Way to a Better Future We've all thought about it at some point: What if I could go back in time and do it all over again? If there were a way, we each have decisions we would change, regrets we would erase, and mistakes we would undo. If I Could Do It All Over Again explores the concept of a "do-over" through insightful interviews with more than two dozen respected Christian leaders, including Tim Keller, Anne Graham Lotz, Michael W. Smith, Joni Eareckson Tada, and Ravi Zacharias. Like an intimate conversation over a cup of coffee, these leaders transparently share stories of their struggles, triumphs, and failures through the lens of God's grace and redemption. While none of us will get a do-over, you can find biblical encouragement through the stories of others. In this candid and contemplative book, author Jon Gauger asks the hard questions and reveals answers sure to leave you filled with hope, courage, and freedom.
