Connie loves being a homemaker and loves the Lord, her faith and determination are inspiring. She paints a picture of daily life at home and her pleasure in the simple has caused me to slow down and just appreciate what I have and know that I don't have to be a part of the chaos of this modern world.

Even though I don’t agree with a lot of the views expressed in this book, I enjoyed the quietness of it. It inspires me to focus on my home and living well on a budget. I found it hard to put down and loved the homemaking/cooking aspects of it.

An inspirational story of a wife who loved her husband and her family through years of suffering and praying for her husband's salvation. Very motivational for homemaking and making pennies stretch.
