Author Sara Horn always admired the Proverbs 31 wife, but when she became a busy writer and mother, she deemed this model to be dated and impossible. Or is it? Join Sara as she heads into a one-year domestic experiment and offers full access to see if this biblical model can be embraced by a modern woman—even one who can’t sew.

With humility and humor, Sara sets out to pursue the Proverbs 31 characteristics through immersing herself in all things domestic, but when her family’s situation changes and she must return to a full-time job, she’s forced to look at the Proverbs 31 woman with a whole new viewpoint. Through it all, she and readers discover:

  • what it means to be a godly woman and a wife
  • how investing in family and faith refines priorities as a spouse and a parent
  • how mistakes are opportunities for growth

This thought-provoking, surprising, and entertaining personal account will inspire women to try their own experiments in living out God’s purpose for their lives.

A Word from the Author


"When I set out to follow the example of the Proverbs 31 wife for one year, things turned out far differently than I'd ever planned! A lot went wrong!

"You're going to see a whole lot of honest-to-goodness life, and many more questions than answers. But my prayer is that in these pages, through laughter as well as some tears, you may find a little of your own story. God doesn't ask for a perfect heart...just a willing one."
Sara Horn, author of My So-Called Life as a Proverbs 31 Wife

Editorial Reviews


“In this book the author has brought the Proverbs 31 Woman to life and shown how to turn possibilities into realities. As you read about Sara's experience you will learn how your effort no matter how small can do great things and you will be transformed. It was well worth the read.”

“…for anyone who feels they need to become that ever-perfect Proverbs 31 woman, I urge you to get this book.”
—Mom’s Pace


“I thought this book was insightful. To watch a woman transform from a career-driven wife and mother to a family-oriented wife and mother was rewarding...I recommend this to all wives but especially those who feel that they are inadequate.”

“This is a great book! ...A lot happens in her life and she relates it all with humor and candidness.”
NLFamily.net


“Sara Horn...will inspire you. I often laughed as I read her daily accounts.”
ElderWiggins.wordpress.com


“I recommend this book for those who want another perspective on the Proverbs 31 Woman...It was a fun read and made me feel like I had a new friend as I eavesdropped on Sara's life for a whole year.”

“As you read this book, you will be reminded through humor and thought provoking moments that a fear of the Lord, a gentle spirit, patience, and generally, all the fruits of the spirit are traits that we as women after God's own heart should possess. I highly recommend this book and give it a huge thumbs-up.”
—TheRempels4.blogspot.com


“The truth is that the Proverbs 31 Woman is not real. She’s a proverb. With hilarity, honesty and a hint of sarcasm, Sara proves that the Proverbs 31 Woman isn’t all she’s proclaimed to be. If you’re like me and sick of trying to be something we’re not…then this book is absolutely perfect for you!”
—TaunyasPlace.com


“My So-Called Life as a Proverbs 31 Wife is for all of us real women with real lives out there. We walk together through her experimental year and learn what it means to be a godly woman, how important it is to invest in faith and in family, and how even mistakes can be used to grow spiritually. I’ve been inspired to rethink the whole ideal wife thing, and so will you.
—Bethanylebedz.blogspot.com


“If you are not Martha (Proverbs 31 woman or Stewart) pick up this book for a realistic look into another not-Martha. I really liked the book and it was a fun, quick read and showed that I may be imperfect but God is willing to work with me.”
—FamilyReads.blogspot.com


“Any women out there who have tried to be or studied Proverbs 31 will enjoy this book.”
—Smh1180.wordpress.com


“I enjoyed this quick book, finishing in a few days. This is not a study on Proverbs, but a simple journal of sorts presenting one woman’s journey through life events that might cause you to open to those verses and see how you might start to challenge yourself.”
—MissionalMamasSoul.blogspot.com


“Reading the title of Sara's new book instantly grabbed my attention…This is Sara's journey and in the midst of it, advice and ideas for us as she learns more and more how to grow in her relationships with her family and her God. Perhaps after reading it you too will want to try an experiment like Sara's.”

“Not only did I absolutely love this book, but I also would like to do my own experiment, though I would like to do it based on what Ms. Horn discovered at the end of her year…I would highly recommend this book to any woman who feels that what she does is never enough.”
