Peace and Hope

This isn’t a book... it’s a wonderful journey! Maybe it’s meant to be part of your journey. It definitely was for me! It has blessed me tremendously.... all the way to the end... it was what I needed like chicken soup for my weary soul!!! Read to the end... you will be blessed!

Perfect encouragement

This book is the perfect encouragement for our overly busy lifestyles. It is the guidance to grow and not stay stagnant that all women need when growing in the Lord.

Inspiring content for anyone

This book is an excellent reminder as to the fragility of our spirituality. The author takes you through her life as mother and wife and how she struggles and works at her prayer life and the balance between time for God and time for her family.

Great book!

What made the experience of listening to Having a Mary Heart in a Martha World the most enjoyable?

The book is very good. I gained a lot of good insight, and was able to apply many things to my day-to-day living.

What do you think the narrator could have done better?

I think the narrator could have been a little more expressive.
