Review

"Who but Liz Curtis Higgs could so creatively reveal God's compassion, unconditional love, and mercy through such 'Bad Girls' in Scripture?"  
--Carol Kent, speaker and author of Becoming a Woman of Excellence

"This work is God-breathed, the best ever to come from Liz Curtis Higgs. Absolutely life-changing! You'll alternately weep, sigh, gasp, rejoice--and yes, even giggle.  And oh, is it filled with depth and grace."    
--Diane Noble, best-selling author


From the Trade Paperback edition.

Product Description

When it comes to badness, there's nothing new under the sun.

Author and speaker Liz Curtis Higgs brings her best-selling book Really Bad Girls of the Bible to life in this fast-paced presentation introducing eight truly bad belles.

Climb inside the hearts of Bathsheba the bathing beauty and the bewitching medium of En Dor. Be set free with the ashamed adulteress and the desperate bleeding woman. Each story demonstrates the sovereign power of God at work, even in women who were “really bad.”

Join hundreds of women as they laugh and learn with author, speaker, and “Encourager ®” Liz Curtis Higgs.

"Engaging, relevant, personal...a joy!"
"God just radiates from her."
"Refreshing...and sooo deep!"

“Liz is so real. She makes it easy to identify with the Really Bad Girls–and with her.”

5.0 out of 5 stars A witty and insightful look at the Bible's "bad girls", August 13, 2002

By 

Sara (New York) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Really Bad Girls of the Bible: More Lessons from Less-Than-Perfect Women (Paperback)

This book is just as good, and maybe even better, than its predecessor, "Bad Girls of the Bible." In "Really Bad Girls", Liz Curtis Higgs follows the same format and conveys the same message as the first. She brings the reader's attention to often-overlooked women in the Bible, such as Jael, Athalia, and the Medium of En-Dor (no, not the planet the Ewoks live on!). She brings these "bad girls" to life and makes their stories relevent to today's women through modern-retelling of the stories. At the end of each study, she tells us what we can learn from them and that, most of all, God will forgive us and love us no matter what.

Her "Bad Girls" books have really caught on like wildfire in the Christian community, and no doubt have captured the hearts of many non-Christians as well. Her books are different and edgy, which is just what the Christian literary community needs. As a reformed "bad girl" herself, Liz speaks as somebody who has been through it all and lived to tell about it. She welcomes every woman, no matter what her background, with open arms and an open heart. Even if you don't really consider yourself a "Christian", you will be completely won over by her books and message. Actually, I believe she wrote her books as much for those outside the Christian community as those within it.

I was so touched by her books that I emailed Liz herself telling her what a difference they made in my life. She sent an encouraging, heart-felt message back, which totally made my day! How many authors out there will do that? Liz is definitely one-of-a-kind!

5.0 out of 5 stars You can't put this one down either!, April 9, 2001

This review is from: Really Bad Girls of the Bible: More Lessons from Less-Than-Perfect Women (Paperback)

Liz did it again. Every bit as engaging as the first Bad Girls book. You've just got to love the way Liz deftly chauffers you over the highways of "Bad-dom" and ends up pulling your car right into the driveway of grace. Wonderful! --Lisa Samson, author of The Church Ladies

5.0 out of 5 stars Liz Outdoes Herself!, February 11, 2005

By 

Meg C (NC) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Really Bad Girls of the Bible: More Lessons from Less-Than-Perfect Women (Paperback)

I got this book after having read the first one. I really enjoyed the first book, but Liz really outdoes herself with #2. When the title says, "Really Bad," she is not kidding. There are several stories that I had read several times in the Bible and not grasped the severity of them until having read Liz's modern day version. Yet there are some characteristic traits in these women that can be found in every one of us. A must read!
