Product Description

In this inspiring look at the lives of women in the Bible, bestselling author Elizabeth George reveals refreshing models of faith for today. Stories about Eve, Deborah, Sarah, Ruth, Mary, and other women from Scripture offer testimonies of changed lives and reflections on the remarkable strengths God cultivates in women who love Him—Jocebed is an example of a remarkable mother, Deborah’s life is an illustration of wisdom, Ruth and Naomi model pure devotion, and Hannah demonstrates sacrifice.

Conveying the assurance of God’s love, The Remarkable Women of the Bible provides nourishment from a woman’s point of view and connects today’s woman with the source of fulfillment that sustained her sisters in Bible times—a relationship with God.

Adapted from Women Who Loved God.

5.0 out of 5 stars Rewarding Faith and Love will come to you..., November 21, 2005

By	S. Sparacino "SS" (Laguna Niguel, CA.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

EXCELLENT book. I am not the best sometimes at reading nor finishing a book, however this one...I could not put it down. This book was great and she made it very easy to understand. Sometimes the Bible can be a bit hard to understand for some people so they just avoid and don't read. Reading this book will put it all in perspective for you in understanding these great women of the Bible. They all have stories in what you can relate to even in our times now. Its awesome and you will greatly enjoy it and it will greatly strengthen your faith in what God has for you. Its a great book for a womens Bible study group, I highly advise it. Sometimes you don't need all the fancy big books to get what you need out of it....

5.0 out of 5 stars Learn how you too can be remarkable as well!, May 13, 2007

By	maria briley - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

We can learn alot from their trials and hardships. Though our husbands fail us, or disappoint us God is always there no matter what!

It's easy to say let go and let God, but reading about how Sarah let go and waited on the Lord makes it real and possible.
You can be single, widowed, or married to learn and relate to these women. Putting God first really does make a difference. Hopefully you will have the desire to study His word and truely let God and let God.

4.0 out of 5 stars Women of the Bible, January 16, 2007

By	Marlene Bradley (Schenectady, NY) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

Excellent reading and study of the women of the Bible taken straight out of scripture. Gives an in depth analysis of what the circumstances and cultures each woman lived in and how each one dealt with them and their response to God's plan for them.
