I am aware that I still have so much to learn (even after almost 25 years of being a daughter-in-law!). Making Room for Her has been a great help. It has enabled me to think more deeply about both the big picture and the smaller details of what it looks like to nurture and grow healthy, warm, and Christ-like in-law relationships. I have also been challenged to consider what it looks like to care better for my own mum-in-law, especially with the difficulty of long distances and tricky time zones.
I would encourage all women to consider Making Room for Her an essential read, whether they are embarking on a new in-law relationship or have been in one for decades. The questions at the end of each chapter would also make for a good book-club read for Christian women.
