BOOK: To Love, Honor and Vacuum by Sheila Wray Gregoire

After reading many discouraging marriage books full of half truths, "To Love, Honor and Vacuum" is definitely a breath of fresh air. This book is not a doormat manual like others. Sure, it is aimed at helping us be good wives, but this book does not do what others do, blaming the woman for all the marriage problems. It helps women where they are at, realizes that sometimes husbands can be jerks, and how to live your life so that you are doing right but are not burnt out.


I felt that this book was enabling to me as a woman, while it seems that other authors think that I should be walked all over just because I'm a woman. There is very good Biblical and practical advice, including how to do things to get your husband to respect you.

This is one marriage book I can actually recommend, and I gladly do so.

Online Party!

There is an online carnival going on this week at No Longer Quivering. Sure, I don't agree with everything on the site (I am a Christian and most aren't and have decided to reject the Bible completely) but there are some nice ladies on there who can help any of you trapped in the Quiverful or Patriarchy movement. Those of you who know me know that I do believe in submission, but I don't believe in being a doormat and being in an abusive relationship.

So, come and join in the fun! Hurry, the carnival ends on November 5th. There is fun and games and prizes!
