Genesis 3:16b

About the Book

“The wisest of women builds her house, But folly with her own hands tears it down.”
                                                                                     -Proverbs 14:1 ESV

How does the wisest women who builds her house come to tear it down? Through years of feelings that bring emptiness and sadness because things did not turn out as she thought it would? This woman who tears down her house had not found God and even more dangerous, she was unaware that she has an adversary who works against her. This is the journey of such a woman. One who is brought to see the truth of her folly and what feeds it. By divine blessing, she is led through the Word gaining understanding that there is a way to stand up under it, and by grace she is shown amazing love and gains strength to face all that her adversary brings against her, and her marriage.

“Reading the book “Genesis 3:16b,” is like having a front row seat into God’s pruning of the Author’s heart. She shares personal and intimate details about her marriage, life and personal testimony that most people only learn after years of friendship. She does not hold anything back and willingly shares her struggles, limitations and most importantly how her relationship with her Lord and Savior, Jesus the Christ, changed her life. The transparency you will experience while reading this book, is the same transparency she offered to me as a friend and co-worker for the past 9 years. Your heart will be truly blessed”.

I finished reading your book a couple weeks ago. Thank you for sharing it with me and thank you even more for the labor of love in writing it. I trust it will be of great benefit to those who read it. Personally, what I appreciated most was learning more of your story. As you say so well, your lives bear the marks of the curse we all share, but knowing the people you have
become, makes me praise God who transforms deserts into gardens, sorrows into joy, and broken people into faithful followers of Christ who write books that exalt the glory of Christ and the transforming power of God for the benefit and joy of others! You and Ken are both such testimonies of God’s amazing grace.
