Demystifying the Proverbs 31 Woman

Proverbs 31:10-31 is a beloved, often-quoted passage of the Bible. Many have learned to look to it for guidance on how to be a better woman - yet the passage is often misunderstood and misapplied.

As today's culture lauds the woman who does and has it all, Christians seek to reconcile what they hear from the secular, feminist world with what God says in His Word. The heart of the Book of Proverbs is God's love. More than just pithy sayings, these proverbs are a picture of how life was meant to be and how it will be when He returns in glory.

Demystifying the Proverbs 31 Woman is an authoritative yet inviting Bible Study discussion of the passage in terms of language, history, purpose, and application. Readers will come away with a sense of renewal and affirmation - and a keener understanding of the biblical example of the Proverbs 31 woman. What shines through is not a prescription for how to become a better wife, mother, woman, or friend, but a description of the Savior, the Church, and ourselves.

Christian women - young and old, married and single - will learn valuable lessons from Proverbs 31 and apply it to their lives.
