KITCHEN TABLE COUNSELING by Muriel Cook and Shelly Cook Volkhardt, Navpress is a must for your women. It is subtitled as a Practical and Biblical Guide forWomen helping others.

We had the privilege of having Muriel come to the LIFT (see website LIFTAZ.com) Summer Seminar. Muriel has been teaching and speaking for many years, but her presentation was as warm and fresh as if it was being shared for the first time. Her life experience contributes to her wisdom of course, but the lingering benefit to me what the deeply scripture approach she has to serving others.
Let me quote a few do's and don'ts from her book:

Do meet a woman at her house, restaurant, or a car.
Don't invite her to your home.

Do listen to see if her thinking is correct. Biblical. Make her face the Truth.
John 8:32 The truth will set you free.

Do make them responsible for their own decisions.
Don't take that responsibility on yourself. Example:
If the Bible says it, do it. If not in the Bible say:

'If I were you, I would do this, but that is your decision.'

Don't submit to a driving force to help everyone.
See John 5:1-9 the man at the pool of Bethesda.
Luke 5:15, 16 Great multitudes came. Jesus slipped away to pray.

DO ask God, "Send me the person YOU want me to help."

GREAT BOOK!

Quote

After a wonderful retreat for The Church at Arrowhead, here in Glendale Arizona, I received a note with a quote that made my heart sing:

"It is not what a woman does that determines whether her work is sacred or secular, but why she does it....."

May we be certain that we are living AS TO THE LORD, according to Colossians 3:17

Another great website is creativeladiesministry.com. We downloaded tea bag packets with scripture for a May tea we were having. Charming ideas and easily transferable. Wish I was smart enough to actually put on this blog a sample for you.
