Publisher's Description
GOD CAN MEET YOUR NEEDS AS HE DID FOR WOMEN OF THE BIBLE Women are central to some of the most critical events, powerful encounters, and transformative moments in the Bible. They change the course of history. These extraordinary women rose above because God was their refuge, and now you can join them. Based on the #1 New York Times bestseller, The Women of the Bible Speak, this workbook connects the stories of old to each of our modern experiences. In these 16 lessons, you’ll be challenged to consider the parallels between each woman’s story and your own. You’ll reflect on how God worked in their lives and uncover how He’s working in yours, today. Each lesson in the workbook will take you through these exercises: REFLECT invites you to read key moments of each woman’s life in the Bible and connect with her story. CONNECT asks you to consider how God in the Old Testament or Jesus in the New Testament responds to each woman and what this discloses about His character and how He responds to you. REVEAL provides an opportunity to identify specific character traits, responses to God, and acts of faith, as well as your similar traits, responses, and acts of faith. PRAY asks you to prayerfully consider how the woman’s story ties into the work God is doing in your life right now. BONUS SECTIONS: PAIRS where you’ll be asked to consider the women in pairs, finding the commonalities in their callings and challenges. Some of the women knew one another. Others were connected simply by a thread of common purpose, one that becomes clearer by studying the women side by side. Lessons include: Sarah Hagar Rachel Leah Tamar Ruth Deborah Jael Hannah Miriam Esther Rahab Mary Martha Mary, Mother of Jesus Mary Magdalene

“Shannon Bream reminds us: when women of God speak, we’re wise to listen, take note, and learn. I’ve found it true in my own life, and Shannon’s book is a worthy reminder, revealing rich life lessons found in the lives of biblical women.”
“Women of the Bible have made significant contributions, and God used them to change the course for everyone. Shannon introduces us to the brave, noble, and sometimes vulnerable or broken women in the Bible. This book is a helpful tool to demonstrate—no matter what you are going through—that other women experienced the same and still came out on top.”
“In The Women of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream offers valuable examples of how to live a faithful life. Through these warm and engaging stories, Shannon reveals how central women were to God’s story in the Bible. They were courageous queens, strong mothers, and wise prophets. They defended Israel and were the first Christian evangelists. There are lessons for all of us in this book”
“Shannon takes us directly into the lives of women in the Bible and, more specifically, into their hearts through their very own words, emotions, and interactions. She reminds us that throughout history, God has valued women as part of His plan of salvation, even purposing one to bear the Savior of the world. With so much focus today on women trying to obtain worth and value, this book provides a clearer picture of the value God has always placed on each of us. We will never have to fight for what we already have.”

Thanks, Shannon, for this fresh reminder of God’s willingness to offer a new beginning for anyone who asks!”
