Examine the lives and experiences of seven women from ancient Israel; their flaws, faith, struggles and solutions.

Description

Ask the average person about women from the Old Testament and they will probably imagine that these ancient documents have little to say. After all, doesn't the Bible come from an age in which women were totally repressed? In fact, until recently, hasn't the Bible itself been responsible for keeping women down?

If these are opinions that you share or have come across, then this Good Book Guide will give you a totally different view of the Bible. It examines the lives and experiences of seven women from ancient Israel, highlighting their flaws and their faith, their struggles and solutions. Women who were wives, mothers and worshippers of God — from a pagan prostitute to a prophetess waging war.

Through the lives of these women we learn about God, ourselves, the great problem with this world, and what God is doing about it. This is not just a history course — these stories could change your life!

Other information

Very Good

 Six of us, are studying the Women of Faith book tog. varying ages, 50 upwards,mature Christians, but all with a desire to grow in our faith and walk with God. So far we have only had the opportunity to meet together twice. but passages we thought we knew well, have challenged us, and encouraged us to dig deeper into the Scriptures, and we have learnt more about God's amazing grace and mercy to us. I was recommended the series by my daughter, the wife of a leader in a New Frontier's Church.
Thanking you, for prompt dispatch of order.

God is good.

 Monday was our first night and the study of Eve was powerful and well written. I especially appreciated the connection to Philippians 2 – it is so important to weave Christ through the whole of Scripture and you did an outstanding job with this! Thank you for a wonderful resource and for your attentiveness to our ordering needs.
