In volume one of Wisdom from Above, Dr. Betty writes on such issues as her lengthy struggle to overcome cancer, raising children, forgiving oneself of past mistakes, homosexuality, and one of her signature issues: the abuse that some women endure from men. In this second volume, she expands on the first, deals heavily with sexuality and comes down hard on fornication. She discusses the call to serve and issues involving marriage and parenting. As in all her books, she deals with family, especially her own, often humorously.
