The success of Steve McVey's books--beginning with the 225,000-selling "Grace Walk"--testifies to readers' hunger to get free of performance-focused Christianity and rediscover the grace-filled, relational God of the Scriptures.

The issue of God's will confuses and frustrates many believers. Steve McVey helps and encourages them with key biblical principles:

1. Focusing on "rules," Christians end up anxious, hesitant, and distant from their compassionate Father.
2. Focusing on God's "relationship" with them, Christians will feel assured He is a Person to trust, not a formula to figure out.
3. Believers can relax, knowing that God wants to guide them and has given them the life and mind of Christ.

The result of the grace-based relationship? A bold, no-regrets life, lived in light of God's complete dependability. This kind of life--the kind of life every Christian desires--is revealed in "Walking in the Will of God."

Author and pastor Steve McVey has spent thousands of hours listening to and counseling women who face marriage difficulties. Many want to believe God is at work, but they don't see how. They try to change their husband, but eventually become frustrated, hopeless, or disengaged.

Starting from the truth that a wife can't change her husband (or children)--only God can--Steve points women toward how God wants to change them by flooding their hearts with His generous grace so they can...

• rest in His assurance of their worth when they feel pressured to do everything
• trust, not fret, when they're unsure about their husband's spiritual leadership
• see God's bigger picture in the struggle with a prodigal child
• take decisive, loving actions in a controlling or bullying relationship

In these and other situations, When Wives Walk in Grace gives specific, attitude-changing steps of faith to help women rest while God does the work in their marriage.
