When Wives Walk in Grace

Resting in Christ While God Works in Your Marriage

By Steve McVey –

Author and pastor Steve McVey has spent thousands of hours listening to and counseling women who face marriage difficulties. Many want to believe God is at work, but they don’t see how. They try to change their husband, but eventually become frustrated, hopeless, or disengaged.

Starting from the truth that a wife can’t change her husband (or children)—only God can—Steve points women toward how God wants to change them by flooding their hearts with His generous grace so they can…

• rest in His assurance of their worth when they feel pressured to do everything
• trust, not fret, when they’re unsure about their husband’s spiritual leadership
• see God’s bigger picture in the struggle with a prodigal child
• take decisive, loving actions in a controlling or bullying relationship

In these and other situations, When Wives Walk in Grace gives specific, attitude-changing steps of faith to help women rest while God does the work in their marriage.
