Today, we're unpacking two teachings from 1 Corinthians--speech that uplifts and love that unifies.

This month we're examining the heart posture a virtuous woman brings to her work. A Proverbs 31 woman approaches her tasks with a willing heart, geared to service, and faithful hands that those around her can trust in. She is honorable, diligent, humble, and effective. She makes wise investments on behalf of her family that cultivate good fruit. We will look at the investments we can make to cultivate good fruit in our lives, and end with a self-assessment on how we can impro

This devotional study is for women of any age in any season. Proverbs 31 is not a badge earned by a marriage certificate. It is a portrait of what a woman looks like when she is living from her God-given identity and essence, which is love.
