129 | What Proverbs 31 REALLY Says about Being a Godly Wife 10.06.2026 24min

Is the Proverbs 31 woman inspiring you or exhausting you?For many Christian wives, Proverbs 31 has become a checklist of impossible expectations rather than a source of encouragement. But what if we've misunderstood one of the most quoted passages in the Bible?In this episode of Home to Haven, Terrell and Jen take a fresh look at Proverbs 31, separating cultural myths from biblical truth. You'll discover what Scripture actually says about being a godly wife, why the Proverbs 31 woman is often misrepresented, and how God's design for women is rooted in wisdom, character, and faith not perfection.Whether you're feeling discouraged, striving to measure up, or simply want a deeper understanding of God's Word, this conversation will help you view Proverbs 31 through a grace-filled, biblical lens.Get the Free Resource!https://oakhavencompany.com/5prayersJoin the Community!Receive ONE email a week with practical tips and encouragement to transform your communication.https://newsletter.oakhavencompany.com/inlineVisit: https://oakhavencompany.comBe SocialInstagram: https://instagram.com/OakhavenCompany Facebook: https://fb.com/OakhavenCompany Subscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@oakhavencompany Follow on TikTok: https://tiktok.com/OakhavenCompanyHosted on Ausha.
