For too long the women of the Bible have been depicted in
one-dimensional terms. On one side are saints, such as Mary, while
on the other are "bad girls," such as Eve and Jezebel. Just as
often, the female characters of the Bible are simply ignored.
However, the women of the Bible are complex, multidimensional
individuals whose lives are inspiring, funny, and tragic in ways
too many of us never hear. In this second of two volumes, Lynn
Japinga acquaints readers with the women of the New Testament. From
faithful forerunners like Anna and Elizabeth to female disciples
like the sisters Mary, Martha, and Mary Magdalene to
first-generation followers like Lydia and Dorcas, readers will
encounter a wealth of foremothers in the faith in all their messy,
yet redeemable, humanity. This Bible study introduces and retells
every female character who contributes to one or more New Testament
stories, diving deeply into what each woman's story means for us
today with questions for reflection and discussion.
