Woman of Grace: A Bible Study for Married Women

Rating:
Summary: A truely Catholic Study
Review: Having just completed WOMEN OF GRACE, I must say that it was thoroughly engaging and thought provoking. Citing Scripture and the Catechism, Mrs. Martin leads you to the knowledge of what your life can hold if you accept and work towards God's graces. Her personal lfe stories only add to the intimacy, this is real life.... there are many times when the call of my children and husband interrupt my prayers or contemplation, Mrs. Martin has the answer for that! It is a great study to further strengthen your Personal relationship with God.

Summary: Grow in Grace
Review: I would recommend this practical and enlightening Bible study for any Catholic mother who wants to grow in grace. It was nice to finally discover a Bible study written specifically for Catholic women; I have completed two fine Christian Bible studies, but neither addressed issues of faith in the fullness that Mrs. Martin's does. The author points readers toward relevant, inspiring scripture and Catechim passages (oh, yes...you should have a copy of the Catechism of the Catholic Church available for reference) and encourages us to strive ever higher in our own lives as wives and mothers. Mrs. Martin's personal reflections are engaging, and she weaves them nicely throughout the nine lessons. By the end of the study, I felt as if I had gained a friend and mentor. As we all know, a little while spent in scripture study each day does wonders for the soul, and I completed the study a little bit at a time (while the little angel was napping!). This study is a wonderful tool for helping us grow in faith and grace.

Why only 4 stars? Mothers who do not have the freedom to stay home with their children may feel uncomfortable with this Bible study.

Summary: Thanks, Michaelann!
Review: Our MOM's (Mary Our Mentor) group at our parish is using this Bible Study and have grown in number and in grace. We're only on chapter five, but are so enthusiastic about it, I can't say enough good things. We do a chapter a month and share our thoughts and feelings about the reflections and questions. We have become better women, better friends, better mother and better wives because of this Bible Study. I highly recommend it.

Summary: Well written and very useful!
Review: While looking for a Women's Bible Study, I came across this at an online Catholic book store. Beautifully written and very helpful for the Catholic wife. Martin keeps things pratical for married women. Our vocation is so important that we as women should do as much as we can to impove our lives and the lives of our family. Be sure to have the Catechism ready for reference! I loved the questions at the end of each chapter for reflection and the appendix is handy!
