Hi! I’m April.
I am now a very happily Christian married mother of two, part-time pharmacist, blogger, and author of the book The Peaceful Wife – Living in Submission to Christ As Lord. Be on the look out for The Peaceful Mom in spring of 2018. Greg and I celebrated our 22nd anniversary on May 28, 2016. Greg is an engineer. We attend a large Southern Baptist Church.
This site is a resource I wish I had when I was a young newlywed. I thought I had been the most amazing Christian wife ever – but God revealed to me that I had a lot of work to do in my own heart when I read Love and Respect by Dr. Emerson Eggerichs in December of 2008. Three years into this journey I have been on to become a more godly wife, Greg asked me to share what I was learning with other wives. I pray that what you find here might point you to Christ and also bless your marriage richly.

Her personality and marriage dynamics were rather the opposite of Greg’s and mine. In addition, Radiant was severely spiritually oppressed and physically chronically […]Read More
