I first “met” A Fellow Wife in October of 2012. We have had some INTENSE conversations over the past 3 years. This has been a difficult journey many times for her – as it was for me (and as it is for all of us, I would daresay). I always love sharing what God is […]

“Closeness in Marriage Looks Different from What I Expected”
A Fellow Wife shares her perspective 3 years into her journey to become a godly wife. This is a follow up to Monday’s post about oneness in marriage – that there is a healthy amount of space needed in a godly marriage: One (personal) thought I have is that closeness with your husband looks and […]
A Fellow Wife Writes a Letter to Her Younger Self
Guest post by A Fellow Wife – as if she could write her 2012 self a letter from August of 2015. Not everything she writes to her old self will apply in every wife’s situation, but maybe some of it will be a blessing to other wives who are on this journey – seeking to become […]
A Fellow Wife Thinks about Giving Space
We are continuing to talk about giving our husbands space. (When Your Man Needs Space– was Monday’s post.) I know this won’t apply to every marriage dynamic for every wife. But I have a feeling there are a lot of you for whom this topic is a difficult one and a relevant one right now. […]
A Fellow Wife Focuses on Overcoming Bitterness
A Fellow Wife began this journey with me in October of 2012. I have seen God do such a mighty work in her. And He is not done! A Fellow Wife’s husband is a loving, devoted man. He treats his wife very well. There is no abuse or anything awful going on here. But he doesn’t […]
A Fellow Wife Reflects on Her Two Year Journey
I first “met” a Fellow Wife in October, 2012. I can’t begin to count all the discussions we shared together. This has been a difficult, painful and challenging journey at times – as it is for all of us who seek to know, obey and please Jesus. We must die to self, go […]

But you are all more than welcome to comment, discuss, encourage each other, pray for one another, build each other up and […]
From a Fellow Wife – Suggestions VS Instructions
From my dear sister in Christ, a Fellow Wife (this post is probably going to be most relatable to wives who were very controlling and outspoken whose husbands were more passive): I have to share part of a conversation my husband and I had last night. He had made a comment earlier in the […]
How a Fellow Wife and Her Husband Decided to Handle their Finances
From a Fellow Wife. There is no specific “right way” for a godly couple to handle money issues. I love to give lots of different couple’s approaches so that wives can prayerfully consider different options and seek God’s wisdom for their own marriage and maybe have some ideas about how to respectfully approach the issue with their […]
Love Him Less, Respect Him More – by a Fellow Wife
A Guest Post by a Fellow Wife who began her journey to become a godly wife in October of 2012: The very title of this sounds bad, doesn’t it? But I think I am on to something. So I have been aware that respect is very important to men. I have learned that they would […]
