Becky Miller is a stay at home mom with three children and a husband almost too good to be true. She dreams of being a Wonderful Wife, a Marvelous mother, and Do Great Things For God. In her dreams, she’s Super Mom. In reality, she never quite measures up, at least not in her own eyes.
Becky is sure she knows God’s plan for her life. Unfortunately every time she is within reach of achieving her goal, a door slams shut. Doesn’t God want her to do well? A super achiever, Becky single handedly develops a women’s ministry in her church. Small groups, retreats, Mom’s fellowship on Wednesday morning, nursery, she’s in charge of a wide range of committees, strictly volunteer, of course. When her church decides to make the leader of the Women’s Ministry a full-time, paying staff position, Becky is sure they will consider her first.
Then Kevin, her husband loss his job, the church position goes to someone else, and Becky’s plans begin to fall apart. The Secret Life of Becky Miller, is a witty and touching story of one woman’s desire to do God’s will, if she could only be still long enough to wait for him to lead. |
