Womanly Dominion: More Than A Gentle and Quiet Spirit
by
Mark Chanski
Christian woman take dominion! ""Play your position!"" is a call we may hear a coach yell at a soccer or football game. The meaning is: Do what you have been assigned to do, and do it well! Many Christian women have been told over the years that they must quietly stay under their parasols while their men go out and conquer the world. Is this what the Bible really teaches?...more

MY REVIEW:
Why didn't I read this book years ago?!
Womanly Dominion has been sitting in my To-Read pile for close to two years. Finally, this week, it made it's way from that tall pile into my hands as I opened it's pages and feasted on the Scripture and Biblical counsel between it's front and back cover. With only 226 pages of reading it is fairly short, yet rich in depth and very comprehensive in it's topic of Biblical womanhood.

This book was encouraging and challenging. I found many of Mark Chanski's clarifications helpful. I would rate it in the top five books on Biblical Womanhood of those I've read, and would recommend it to women who are humbly seeking direction on their role as women born for "such a time as this." At times I thought some of his key points redundant and I honestly had moments where I was put off by the fact that "a man" was teaching about womanhood, but at the same time, I LOVE the biblical idea o...more
Possibly the best book on biblical womanhood I've ever read. Most are written by women and so to have a man's perspective and encouragement is refreshing and helpful. Clear, practical, bible-founded wisdom.
It took me a few chapters to grow accustomed to his style, and those first chapters were review for me. But once I got past that I really loved this book, and benefitted practically from it.

While this book is written about godly womanhood as a whole, it has a powerful chapter on motherhood. If you are seeking to understand God’s heart for women, this book is my top pick!
My all time favorite book on womanhood with all it's roles! Love! Need to read every year or so for a refresh. So encouraging and biblical!
I haven't read it in a while, but I remember being really inspired by this book!
Great book. Practical but still always necessary to go back to God's word!
Really enjoyed his presentation of strong womanhood!

I'd heard rave reviews of this book, so maybe my expectations were too high. I wasn't too impressed. Maybe also because I'm reading from a single mom perspective and my 'household' and 'dominion' are a bit different than the typical Christian woman. It seemed really heavy, and I ended up just putting it down.
Loved this book - very challenging and encouraging regarding our precious roles as wives/moms/homemakers. It will be a go to when I need fresh perspective for sure.
Christian.
