Recently, I was sent this email from a Pastor:

Lori,

I very much appreciate all that you do to help women understand proper biblical gender roles. Teaching biblical gender roles is also a big part of my preaching ministry. In my preaching and teaching on this subject, I find it is the women who have the hardest time accepting what the Bible says.

I had an idea that may help women in this area. I do not know if you have the skills to do this, but maybe you know someone who does. My idea is to do a documentary on “The Joys of Submission,” or something to that effect. You have your own testimony and so many of the women who respond in the comments share their testimonies of how much more blessed and peaceful their lives are since they have learned biblical submission.

Whether or not you have the skills to actually make the documentary, you most definitely have the connections to assemble the participants for it. I strongly believe that such a film would be an enormous blessing to the Kingdom of God. I know that if you were to make a documentary, I would distribute it as widely as I know hoe.

Thank you,

Pastor….

After discussing this with my husband, we decided a book would be better since I don’t have the skills nor the technology to produce a documentary. It’s way over my head! But in order to put together a book like this, I need your help! I will call it “The Testimonies of Transformed Wives.” All of you who have been transformed by God’s mercy, power, and grace, please feel free to contribute!

I would like the testimony to be about three to five paragraphs; one testimony per page of the book. Email it to me at [email protected]. I would like to have them all by the end of August. You can end your testimony with your name and email if you don’t mind women contacting you for guidance. I can always use help mentoring women, or you can keep it anonymous. Thank you!

And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Romans 12:2
