    About this ebook

    Being a homemaker is one of the most challenging and frustrating things you can do as a woman. However, it is also one of the most rewarding. If you are concerned about being a Godly wife and mother, the things contained in this book will be of help to you. We will examine what the Bible says about you as a woman, also what God teaches about marriage, being a wife, being a mother, and being a keeper at home. We will also look at the philosophy of the world and how it will destroy your life if you follow it.

    This book comes from a series of lessons taught to the ladies at our church. It can be used in an individual study or as a group study. At the end of the book, you will find a Study Guide with questions for discussion, Scripture verses to study, and activities for each lesson. I hope that as you read and consider the truths highlighted in this book, it will help you to become a better homemaker.

    Beverly Hammett

    Beverly Hammett is a wife, mother, and grandmother. She and her husband, Douglas Hammett, have been married for 37 years, and the Lord has blessed them with 4 children and 7 grandchildren. Since Beverly grew up in a pastor's home, and her husband was already a pastor when she married him, she is well acquainted with the blessings as well as the problems of being a pastor's wife, and also of the ministry. Recently her life has taken on a whole new direction and focus. After serving at Lehigh Valley Baptist Church in Emmaus, PA, for 23 years, her husband stepped aside from his position as Senior Pastor in October, 2010. The position of Senior Pastor was given to their oldest son, Roland Hammett, and the church then sent Douglas and Beverly as missionaries to the country of Botswana, Africa. So now she gets to learn how to be a missionary's wife! Beverly loves to read, to cook, to go on walks with her husband, and to spend time with her children and grandchildren. The books she has written are a compilation of her experiences and lessons learned during 37 years of serving as a pastor's wife.

      Expected a little more due to the title of this book. Everything was what I already knew and have learned over the years. Some of her views are a bit outdated and old fashioned, like not wearing pants as a woman or wearing clothing that shows curves. Honey, some of us curvy women have no choice but to wear clothes that show our curves, and I dress modestly and still struggle concealing my womanly shape. It’s easier for skinnier women to hide their bodies under clothes but for us curvier ladies it’s a struggle, especially if you have a large bosom and a large bottom. Just saying.
