Proverbs 31 Ministries brings God’s peace, perspective, and purpose to today’s busy woman.

Proverbs 31 Ministries is a non-denominational, non-profit Christian ministry that seeks to lead women into a personal relationship with Christ. With Proverbs 31:10-31 as a guide, Proverbs 31 Ministries reaches women right in the middle of their busy day through free daily devotions, radio program, speaking events, conferences, monthly magazine, resources, online communities, and Gather and Grow groups. We are real women offering real-life solutions to women who are striving to maintain life’s balance, in spite of today’s hectic pace and cultural pull away from godly principals. Wherever a woman may be on her spiritual journey, Proverbs 31 Ministries exists to be a trusted friend who takes her by the hand and walks by her side, leading her one step closer to the heart of God.

We Believe In:
One God in three persons—Father, Son and Holy Spirit

Jesus Christ’s deity, virgin birth, sinless humanity, substitutionary death, atoning blood, bodily resurrection and ascension to heaven

The entire Bible is God’s infallible revelation to man

Salvation by faith alone, through grace alone, in Jesus Christ alone

The resurrection of the body: eternal glory for believers in heaven and everlasting punishment for unbelievers in hell

The one true church, the body of Christ, consisting of all believers

Obedience to our Lord’s command to lead people of all nations to faith in Christ and to grow in Christ-likeness

Christ’s personal return to establish His Kingdom on earth

The Holy Spirit indwells and empowers believers and is given as a seal and a pledge of our inheritance in Christ Jesus
