Beautiful Girlhood #18


Home Life

In this chapter the author directs our attention to the home life of a daughter. She takes the girl through the different relationships of a daughter's home life and how to develop them in a godly and respectable way.
Daughter's learn how to submit to authority at home, though it will be a bit of a struggle during those "in between" years.

Daughters are in couraged to take part in some of the responsibilities of home, from cooking, grocery shopping to cleaning.

The author also points out that they should strive to develop a good relationship with their dads and it may mean both need to be intentional. Readers are also reminded that though moms may seem as if they are restrained at every turn but she reminds them that this is a mother's responsibility until the daughter has matured enough.

Scrpiture:
Read Ephesians 6:1-3
- What does it command you to do?
- How does it say it should be done?
- What are the benefits of doing things God's way?

Read Psalm 40:6-8
-How are you to obey?

With this chapter discuss what it is to correctly submit to parent's authority, what are ways they can stay acquainted with their dad, and when do they think a mother's advice should stop.

These ideas for discussion on from The Companion Guide to Beautiful Girlhood by Shelley Noonan and Kimberly Zach. Want more ideas on going through this book visit B'twixt and B'tween blog.
