Wanted! Godly Women: A Bible Study for Ladies on the Virtuous Women of Provers 31 - Paperback

by Linda Singletary (Author)

Proverbs 31 is God's pattern for a godly woman. As Christian women, we often think of her as a "super woman" who is way beyond our reach. These eight lessons examine the virtues of this unusual woman who was valued and praised for being trustworthy, industrious, prepared, strong, benevolent and discerning. Though we may never attain to all her accomplishments, studying her example is a plan we can follow in our daily lives.

Author Biography

Linda Singletary grew up in a pastor's home in Ohio. After graduating from college in 1959, she moved to Florida to teach in a Christian school. There she met and married Bert Singletary, who was also a pastor. In 1966, the Singletarys moved with their two small sons, Mark and Stephen, to New Mexico, where the Lord gave them a daughter, Susanna. Bert pastored Manzano Baptist Church in Albuquerque, for almost thirthy-six years. During those years, Linda taught ladies' Bible studies in her church, and then began writing lesson books for ladies. In 2002, Bert retired from the pastorate, but has continued to minister by preaching in churches, and conducting a daily radio program which airs on the Navajo reservation. Linda has continued her ministry to ladies by speaking at retreats, banquets, and other events and through her writing. Her favorite scripture is Psalms 34:1-4, "I will bless the LORD at all times: his praise shall continually be in my mouth. My soul shall make her boast in the LORD: the humble shall hear thereof, and be glad. O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt his name together. I sought the LORD, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears."
