Are you eager to learn how to have a closer
relationship with God and your family? Do you need to know how to manage a
home while juggling other duties? Do you want to learn how to effectively
minister in your church and neighborhood?
And how should a woman
know what to do
first? In a hectic day, should a
busy mom place a priority on her home? Her
kids? A job to pay the bills? What about serving in her church? Helping
a sick friend? Where will she ever
find the time to develop a close relationship with God among all her other
responsibilities?
In Juggling
Life's Responsibilities: Biblical Help for the Married Woman, Anne Elliott clearly teaches
God’s design for women as given in the Bible. She is concerned women are not learning God’s perspective on the roles
and relationships He created for them. Therefore,
she wrote this book to be an introduction to what the Bible teaches about five
major relationships of a woman:
1. Her relationship to God
2. Her relationship to her husband
3. Her relationship to her children
4. Her relationship to her home, and
5. Her relationship to the world.
Through her
warm style, readers can relate to Anne’s stories of personal failure – and
success!
In a style that works equally well individually or in a
group, Anne methodically leads women through God’s design for them and helps
them apply what they’ve learned with special features in each chapter, such
as:
- Extra credit assignments to facilitate Scripture memory.
- A study guide to complete individually or in a small group.
- A group project that will help women in a group develop close
relationships with each other.
- A list of extra reading that directs women to excellent resources
for furthering their understanding of each topic.
What
makes this book different?
Anne Elliott is just an ordinary woman learning these
principles with the help of godly Christians unafraid to step into her life and
teach her what the Bible says. As a
wife and mother of six children, she daily has to
choose to either apply God’s Word to her life or choose her own way –- and
live with the consequences.
She has
learned that when she allows the Holy Spirit to control her life, she
experiences true peace and contentment.
Anne
seeks to share these same principles with other women and give hope to every
woman that she can become a fabulous testimony to the glory of God.
Readers will
be able to relate to Anne’s warm tone and will be reassured as they discover
God has big plans for women of all ages. In
a culture of stress and tough decisions, Anne’s prayer is that the Word of God
presented in Juggling Life's
Responsibilities will help women set wise priorities and will
change hearts in an unprecedented way!

"Oh,
Anne, I think your book is WONDERFUL! Your writing is saturated with
Scripture. You have managed to weave Bible verses into your text in such a
natural manner. I am never tempted to skip over them. Your careful research into
God's Word has given your words authority. Plus, your personality comes
through as you write, and it's a lot of fun to read."
