   Book Review

From AudioFile
Aimee Lilly's voice has just the right amount of enthusiasm, warmth, and sensibility to make her a perfect choice to read George's time management plan for Christian women. George writes as though she is offering advice to a younger sister, adding endearments such as "beloved" and "dear one" throughout the work. Lilly seems to run with this, conveying a tone of familiarity, understanding, and a can-do attitude. While many of the ideas proposed would work only in the most traditional Christian families, George does have many good suggestions for setting priorities and remaining grounded in today's hectic world. Though the book is not for everyone, the tips could be a valuable help to any woman trying to make more time for prayer.

FROM THE CRITICS

Library Journal

George's great passion is attempting to teach the Bible in a way that helps women improve and change their lives for the better. Addressing the questions most women face (and may or may not acknowledge) on a daily basis-Why am I always running behind? How can I simplify my life? What can I do to make myself more focused? Does my life have a purpose?-the author looks to the Bible for the answers to setting priorities. Believing God offers guidelines for managing the major areas of life (spiritual, physical, marital, family, body, finances, and friendships), George, with help from reader Aimee Lilly, uses verses from the New Testament, hoping to offer practical advice for managing life more effectively and efficiently. There is an inherent irony in asking overburdened, overstressed women to find the time to listen to a five-hour audiobook. Fans of George's earlier works, A Woman After God's Own Heart and A Woman's High Calling, will probably enjoy this. Purchase only as need arises.-Pam Kingsbury, Florence, AL Copyright 2003 Reed Business Information.
