Book Review of The Excellent Wife: A Biblical Perspective

The Excellent Wife: A Biblical Perspective
ldesherl avatar reviewed on + 2 more book reviews


I read this book several years ago and though I believe most of it is Biblically sound, I am deeply concerned about what I read in the book where Peace counsels abused wives to stay with their husbands. Also, I feel deeply concerned with the counsel of Peace, where she advises wives of men involved in criminal or illegal activity, to announce that they will report their husbands to the cops before doing this. Wives have been murdered by husbands who knew that they were being turned in. Peace's advice to these wives in abusive situations, puts them at risk! The Bible tells us that in some instances we are to obey God rather than man. Wives, use your discernment in reading this otherwise very good book.
