Have you struggled to reconcile God's vision of virtuous womanhood with worldly myths that marginalize and mock the role of the homemaker? Do you wrestle with cultural messages that demean the homemaker's calling and exalt instead the emotionally androgynous power-woman---the wife whose worth is measured only by the degree of her self-ambition, the shape of her body, or her money-making skills? Delightfully fresh and honest, "Passionate Housewives Desperate for God" debunks the modern "desperate housewife" myth and provides fresh vision for the homemaker. Hear a former "Christian" feminist share how she went from a die-hard homemaker-in-training to a dedicated career woman, and then back again---after God gripped her heart. See the hollow counterfeit of whitewashed feminism and "me-ology" destroyed. And consider the beautiful picture painted in Scripture of the truly fulfilled homemaker who glories in the hopeful calling God created for her.

We fear her, love to hate her, or just avoid her. Really she is a housewife desperate for God. She is the Proverbs 31 woman. Through this study we will debunk the myths of this mysterious and misunderstood woman of the Scriptures. Through this study you will see the necessity of her chores and how it is not about what she did (as most women of her time did the very same things she did - daily!!) but rather how she did it, with an attitude and heart focused on her God. As you get to know her, you will see how every single verse of Scripture was intentionally placed on the page for our teaching, rebuking, correcting and training (2 Timothy 3:16). Mrs. P's godliness and God-focus comes through in each line, if we will take the time to allow the Lord to show us. God did not give us the Bible as a book of exceptions, but a book of examples. With teachable hearts let's meet the beautiful example He gave us in the woman of Proverbs 31.

It has been said that life is a journeyfrom birth, a process learning to prepare for death. In a sense, it is. However, lifes journey can take us in so many directions, so many mountains to climb and so many valleys to cross over. Sometimes its so much fun and excitement, and other times theres so much despair and so many trials to overcome. Regardless, with the cross of Jesus Christ and the empty tomb as our focal point, life can be made bearable and abundant living can be experienced! We are indeed more than conquerors through Christ who strengthens us. Packed with episodes of up and down everyday living, A Desperate Housewifes Spiritual Journey inspires and encourages victorious living.

This book takes a fresh look at twenty-two women of the Old Testament and their revealing stories.

I AM NOT A Desperate Housewife dispels the myth of the past and present stereotypical housewife and provides a Biblical perspective of the commitment and assignments provided for today's woman of God. The subtitle A Homeland Security Plan for Desperate Times exposes the enemy's weapons of mass deception as the first and formidable weapon specifically targeted toward women to destroy their confidence in the authority of the Word of God. Scriptures and personal exhortations named Recipes concludes this plan as the counter-supernatural intelligence for seek-and-destroy missions to establish and maintain the peace and posterity Christ has provided for the Christian home. This book's unique approach targets seven common deceptions that confront women of all ages, races, careers, and marital status and provides a strategy for applying the Word of God, prayer, and faith daily to identify, prevent, and destroy the spiritual warfare that is waged within our emotions. The author uses her 24 year experiences as a home maker and 17 years as a preacher to help mothers relate to the successes and failures in her Christian walk. This book will equip women of all ages with the proper application of Bible scriptures on how to be emotionally intelligent in their daily decision making inside and outside of the home.

You have met them, but you rarely notice them: women who don't seem desperate. Even so, while outwardly these women seem to have full lives, they hunger for more of what God wants for them. If you find yourself one of these women placid on the surface but yearning beneath you need not remain desperate. God designed you perfectly. After years of trying to live up to the expectations of being a minister's daughter and a pastor's wife, author Pam Sims came face to face with her own desperate need for God. After her marriage of twenty-three years ended in divorce, she started asking the question, "Is the Proverbs 31 women for real?" In Making Designing Women out of Desperate Housewives, Sims uses her own "desperate" need for God to challenge you to become a woman by God's design. Open and transparent, she confronts the challenges that you face every day to become a woman that God can use. Sims shares her own personal story of the role of God's love and grace, mercy and forgiveness in her life. You will be challenged to become desperate for God, so He can make you into the beautiful woman He designed you to be.
