Lead Like Jael

di Emma Waters (Autore)

Regnery Faith, 2026

What if the pursuit of “having it all” is costing women the very things they were made to love? In a culture that insists women must choose between two extremes—become a “girl boss” or embrace a “tradwife” ideal—many find themselves longing for something deeper. Neither path fully answers the yearning for purpose, wisdom, and a life aligned with God’s design. Lead Like Jael offers a better way. Drawing from the lives of Jael, Deborah, Sarah, Esther, Mary, and other heroines of the Bible, Emma Waters presents a compelling vision of womanhood rooted not in ideology, but in wisdom, faithfulness, and joyful submission to Jesus Christ in every season of life. Named after the unexpected wartime heroine who defeated Israel’s enemy with a simple tent peg*,*Lead Like Jael argues that Jael’s greatness was not found in rejecting her femininity, but in faithfully embracing the life God had given her. Years of ordinary obedience in her God-given responsibilities prepared her for extraordinary faithfulness in a decisive moment. She didn’t seek a battlefield, but she didn’t shrink back when obedience to God required bold action. She simply used what God had placed in her hands, right where He had placed her. That same pattern still holds true today. When women honor the seasons, limits, and responsibilities entrusted to them, God equips them with the wisdom and courage needed for every trial, every calling, and every moment. Written for women in every stage of life, Lead Like Jael rejects simplistic cultural labels and invites readers into biblical maturity. Waters makes the case for the Tent Peg Strategy, offering seven principles for living wisely in a disordered age: Discernment shaped by God’s Word Shrewdness guided by conviction and courage Resourcefulness grounded in duty to one’s home Hospitality as a life-giving and life-saving force Marriage that embraces husbands as battle-mates, not rivals Motherhood as warfare wielding self-sacrificial love Wise counsel from faithful women Whether you’re just beginning your journey or guiding others along theirs, this book meets you where you are and speaks with strength, clarity, and hope. God’s Word leaves no room for passivity: “The wisest of women builds her house, but folly with her own hands tears it down” (Proverbs 14:1).
