From the Back Cover

MORE FASCINATING WOMEN FROM THE BIBLE. Continuing the practical, insightful discoveries from the best-selling first volume of Her Name Is Woman, Gien Karssen adds the stories of twenty-five more women from the pages of Scripture in Her Name Is Woman, Book 2. Deborah, Delilah, Ruth, Bathsheba, Jezebel, Mary Magdelene-these and many others become surprisingly real and relevant as you step closer to their hearts and lives. Some were successful and some failed-just like women today. What caused their successes, heartaches, joys, and failures? This volume explores the practical truth surrounding each of these biblical women. Both volumes of Her Name Is Woman are for “every woman who seeks the deeper meaning of her existence,” writes Karssen. Each of the forty nine cameos contained in the two volumes will help you understand and fulfill your deepest desires and ideals.

This review is from: Her Name Is Woman, Book 1: 24 Women of the Bible (Paperback)

A tremendous book for women of all ages. A practical devotional book, as well as a great reference tool. This book is filled with analysis of the minute details given in the Bible on the women covered in this book. Well known as well as the little known women are reviewed. Practical is the word that comes to mind. Men and women can learn from this book. The author has tremendous insight and wisdom and shares them on the daily level.

5.0 out of 5 stars God Cares About Me!, January 4, 2001

"lea73" (Van Buren, AR USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Her Name Is Woman, Book 1: 24 Women of the Bible (Paperback)

This has to be the most practical Bible study ever written. When I first became a Christian I felt that there weren't many women to identify with in the Bible. There are, in reality, so many! Their lessons are as timely now as they were in Biblical days. I feel as if I understand more how God wants me to live my life, and how I can glorify Him as only a woman can!

5.0 out of 5 stars Recommended reading for men also!, May 11, 2000

This review is from: Her Name Is Woman: Book 2 (Paperback)

This book, is of superb literary reading. Wonderful for the theology student, the woman's group leader (a study is contained at the end of each chapter), and also for personal reading. You realise how important women were, and still are to God. Women are becoming more recognised... and through this book, you understand how, whether you work, are a Mum at home, a female church leader, a young or older woman YOUR personal importance to God... Gien Karssen is wonderful in the range of women she chooses. The only conclusions she draws are with the use of Biblical evidence, and not hear say or traditional beliefs. The only downfall? That there is no book 3.
