Women are often times very emotional when it comes to relationships and marriage and as a result, they make very important decisions based on feelings. However, if you desire a great marriage, then it's time you asked the right questions. This book will guide you through 7 important questions to ask before walking down the aisle.
I loved how practical the book was, He gave examples and the book gives clarity as to what I should know before saying yes to a man. Also helpful if you’re about to start a relationship leading to marriage.
Thank you, Pastor Kingsley. This is a wonderful resource. I'm already married, but I have a young teenage daughter that I hope to share this knowledge with and also lots of mentees that will benefit greatly from this.
I probably would have enjoyed this book more if the cultural differences weren’t so pronounced. Long before the author stated what country he is from I knew this couldn’t be America. I can’t fathom a world where my future mother in law physically assaults me or one in which my husband allows it. Nor could I envision a world where all my boyfriend’s closest friends are polygamist (apparently those are warning signs). The biblical principles (I.e. about having vision & living in purpose) are good but I am stuck on the part in the book where I just sit and wait and my husband will find me. I think that teaching keeps many Christian women single. Ruth didn’t sit and wait she got all dolled up and laid her pretty self at Boaz’s feet but we are telling Christian women they don’t have to do anything but work on their relationship with Christ and he will deliver a husband to them. Well he’s a relationship expert and I am single so feel free to take my review with a grain of salt and judge this book for yourself. 🤷🏾♀️
This book is very short, but it’s filled with so much wisdom. I love the simplistic way it was written and the inclusion of many examples and scriptures. Love this book and recommend reading it 💘
The 7 questions wise women ask: 1.Why me: at least you should know why the person want to marry you, asking this question will amaze you the answers you get, but it's important you ask why #If out of the 5billion women in theworld,he chose you, you must know why because that same thing is what will keep the marriage going. 2.

Another insightful read from Kingsley—one I wish he had narrated himself. Given that he’s a pastor and carries such depth of wisdom on this topic, his voice would have added a personal touch. I believe I would have thoroughly enjoyed the book even more with his narration. That said, it was still an insightful listen.
I genuinely appreciate the effort and insights he poured into this book.
