Gain a fresh perspective of God's amazing story through the eyes of fifty-two remarkable women in Scripture.

This updated and expanded year-long devotional draws you into the stories of 52 prominent (and not-so-prominent) women in the Bible. From Eve to the Proverbs 31 woman, you'll learn more about their struggles to live with faith and courage. And you'll see that their stories aren't far from our own.

Each week, you'll learn:

• Her story—an inspirational portrait of this character's life.
• Her life and times—background information about the culture of her day.
• Her legacy in Scripture—a short Bible study on her life with application to your own.
• Her promise—the Bible's promises that apply to her life and yours.
• Her legacy of prayer—praying in light of her story.

Perfect for personal prayer and Bible study or for use in small groups, Women of the Bible offers a new perspective that will strengthen your personal relationship with God and will give you a deeper appreciation for the women of faith who have come before us

Ratings and reviews

I enjoyed the structure of the book! I thought a lot of the stories focused on the men involved in the stories not the Women who were supposed to be the point of the story.

great read, study, and knowledge.
