9798891701540: Hey Beginner Wife: Practical Tips and Heartfelt Advice to Help You Have a Happy Marriage

Synopsis

Nobody hands you a manual on the wedding day.

Michelle W. Lentz has been married for forty years and raised six children. She is not writing from theory. She is writing from the specific, unglamorous middle of it. Hey Beginner Wife is the conversation many women wish an older woman had offered them, but never got. Written the way a trusted friend actually talks: honest about her own mistakes, clear about what she'd do differently, and free of the judgment that makes most marriage advice impossible to hear.

Read it together with the Hey Beginner Wife: Companion Guide, a Bible study workbook that will add a faith-based perspective on the topic. (Sold separately.)

Inside, you'll find:

  • What makes a man go quiet and stop listening
  • What venting about him to your girlfriends is quietly doing to your marriage
  • Why other women don't have better husbands (hint: they've just learned to enjoy the ones they have)
  • Why comparison is the most dangerous habit a wife can keep
  • Why the season you're begging to end is the one you'll be most grateful for

A note before you start: get the Companion Guide, too. If you want to bring your faith into this journey, Hey Beginner Wife: Companion Guide is a Bible study workbook that walks through this book chapter by chapter — Scripture, reflection questions, and real application for each characteristic. Combine the two and the book goes beyond something you read and becomes actual changes you make today.

A gift she'd never think to ask for. For a newlywed, a bride-to-be, a daughter or a daughter-in-law — this is the rare present that says I want your marriage to last without saying a word about how it's going.

About the Author

Michelle Lentz graduated from UCLA with a degree in English Literature. Using her happy marriage of nearly 40 years as an example, she writes to inspire women to learn from her mistakes, love their husbands well and enjoy marriage. When she's not cheering on her husband Steve, their six grown children and a growing troop of delightful grandchildren, she's curled up with a good book, pursuing a deep conversation, or looking forward to the next wedding so she can hit the dance floor.
