If you are low on grit or high on emotional fragility, this book is not for you.
Because the truth about womanhood is more dangerous than you've been told.

Nasty rumors have floated around distorting perceptions of women in the Bible for centuries.

Women must sit down, shut up, and be quiet, or be warned against ungodliness. God somehow sees women as less than, and the Bible doesn't value, promote, or celebrate women. Sound familiar?

What's worse, when we ask for examples in the Bible to learn from, we're handed the same three women time and again, giving the impression that the Bible just doesn't have any more to offer.

Nothing is off limits in this devotional series. And no situation addressed in the Bible is too squeamish or dark for us to examine. Crack open this book, and a Bible, and let seventeen Old Testament women share their stories with you. But beware. The women depicted are not your run of the mill, demure, do-nothing woman. Nor are they all admirable. They are women of action, bravery, resilience, and challenge. Wicked women appear alongside the good.

Shepherdess, prophet, prostitute.
Perpetrator, abuse victim, mother, wife.
Each woman is presented as she appears in the Bible.

Are you ready?
