Great book. I have read her other books and this one is just as good. We
use it for a Bible study group.

When a group of women in our church approached me about a Bible study, we decided to read through Slightly Bad Girls of the Bible: Flawed Women Loved by a Flawless God. In order to go deeper, we ordered this workbook, which we used as a resource and the basis of our discussion. While the workbook "might" stand alone, I really only recommend it as an adjunct to the actual book, since it refers directly to the book.

We also watched the DVD Slightly Bad Girls, but it did not follow the formatting of the book or workbook. It really stands independent from the book and workbook.

We had some interesting discussions going through this study, and I really enjoyed being reminded that we don't have to be perfect to belong to God.

This book is the third Liz Curtis Higgs "Bad Girl" book that my pastor has used for a study. In each of the chapters the author has a short contemporary story similar to the Bible story that is the focus of the chapter. This helps to put it in perspective of how the story could apply to us today. In this study I have found that the author brings up different insights that change the way I had always thought of the subject and makes me really think and imagine how life was in those days. This week we will be discussing the chapter about Leah and how she may have felt about being, I believe, in a loveless marriage and how she reacted to her situation.

All of these books in this series are fantastic! I love using them with my small group of ladies!

Did this series of books with a small women's group. Everyone loves it. Buy the into dvd to go with the series....it gives you a lot of insight into the author and her writing style.

As with the other Bad Girls books and workbooks by Liz Curtis Higgs, this one is great. A little different in that the stories are connected instead of each study focusing on different women. Still, helpful and enjoyable, thought provoking.

I LOVED this book. Some of my favorite women of the Bible in such a true to life presentation. It's nice to know God dosen't expect us to be perfect and will use us for great things. . .despite our shortcomings.
