Today's women need strong biblical role models to help them meet the challenge of blending home, career, and ministry. James offers a 21st-century look at your sisters in Scripture, Eve, Sarah, Hagar, Tamar, Mary, and others, that unearths surprising insights and a powerful message that will leave you inspired, encouraged, and deeply valued.
The women of the Bible have a strong, relevant message for women today that has been lost underneath layers of traditional interpretations and the expectation that God does his most important work through men. Crucial dimensions of their lives have been muted, forgotten, or passed over. Their strong voices are silent at a time when women are searching for answers that will hold up under the pressures and challenges confronting them today. This book brings the women of the Bible into the twenty-first century by recovering their powerful message for contemporary women.

Outstanding book -- interesting, easy-to-read and thought-provoking. I read it and passed it on to friends. We all enjoyed it and were eager to discuss our thoughts on each woman's story with each other. Highly recommend.
