Excellent words of wisdom, encouragement, comfort, and grace. Being a godly mother is indeed a high and noble calling, and one that many women are underprepared for. Nancy sketches the basics with clarity and kindness, maintaining a balance that is all too rare in these sorts of books. She highlights the biblical principles, and gives many helpful methods of implementing them, while being careful not to confuse the principle (ie, Christian education) with any one of several God-honoring methods (ie homeschool, Christian school, tutoring, or a hybrid). The chapter on domesticity is especially helpful, and explains how a rigorous education doesn't replace, but rather serves a homeward focus. Great stuff. ( )
