Holiness for Housewives: And Other Working Women
1997, Hubert Van Zeller
4.5/5
I’m not sure I completely resonate with the presumed scenario of the frustrated housewife, and I find his writing tone a bit pedantic (I’d prefer these ideas coming from a fellow housewife, probably), but I concur with his prescription. Learning that we do not need to sanctify the daily chores but allow the daily chores to sanctify us makes a big difference. And understanding that prayer mitigates our disappointments and unites our desire to serve the Lord with the practical acts of service at hand is precisely what I’ve found to be true. Short enough to be read during a nap time, this book might offer enough helpful reorientation to be worth your time!
