Synopsis

The Biblical approach is exactly what is unique about On the Other Side of the Garden. It deals with who you, as a woman, really are. You will learn God's truth, which will enable you to be successful in your own personal spiritual growth. This book defines your special design within the plan of God and even lays out the purpose of your life from God's point of view.

It is not just another book on husband management designed to help you get the most out of your man. The information provided will allow you to live your life to the glory of God, even if your husband never does what he should with his own life.

About this title

About the Author

After fifteen years of collecting notes on Biblical womanhood, my precious wife overcame her fears and put her studies in writing.

She read book after book, hoping someone else had already done what she believed was needed, but to no avail. More and more, she found that Christian books on marriage reflect a psychological approach to the husband/wife relationship. In other words, they promoted people-managing techniques on how to get others to do what you want. Some of these techniques are just good ole' common sense like, You can catch more flies with honey than you can with vinegar. Others are unabashed recommendations on how to manipulate your husband to achieve your own goals. Understanding your husband psychologically and how to better communicate to him are valuable for interpersonal relationships. Nevertheless, this approach does not deal with who you are or how God's desires you to live your life.

Not only has my wife studied and taught Biblical womanhood, she is a qualified, older woman with the credentials to teach the younger women. In our fifty-plus years of marriage, she has faithfully lived up to all the truths presented in her books, as she came to know each of them. She patiently lived as my helpmate for our first twenty difficult years while I searched for my manhood.

I know of no other woman of whom I could better testify that Ginny is truly a Biblical woman who is living successfully in today's world. My prayer for each reader is that you might experience the relationship my wife and I now possess, which is largely due to her having lived most of her life according to the principals set forth in this book.

My fervent prayer is for each woman who reads this book. May she be refreshed, encouraged, and stimulated to a renewed eagerness for God's truths. The results of her hearing and obeying God will be a heightened sense of self-worth, a reinvigorated marriage, and a strengthened family. For these things may she give honor and praise to God alone. I pray further that her life will present to the world a praiseworthy example of God's design for womanhood. This prayer is offered in Jesus' name and for His glory.
