Rating: Summary: Good for individual or group study Review: I appreciate this Bible study guide which is not just offering the same old info. This study presents fresh insights on some women frequently studied, as well as challenging me with women studied less often, for example, Deborah. It is in a workbook format. I have used this series individually and with a group and it has merit for both uses. My one complaint, particularly for group study, is that after most questions in the workbook, the authors go ahead and tell you the answer they were looking for. That makes discussion a little more challenging as we all already know the "right" answer, and tempts the student to be lazy and just look ahead. Still, this drawback can be overcome with creativity. Give this series a try if you want to dig deeper on your own or in a group.
Rating: Summary: Find Inspiration from the Women of the Bible Review: This is a workbook styled study of the women of the Bible. Its organized into daily reflections with verses to read and concepts to think about. You cover one woman per week. I was pleasantly surprised, in that it was written by men so I was expecting a particularly subservient bent to it, but it was not. It portrays the women intelligently and gives us enlightening and positive role models. Consider the first woman of the bible. Eve, whose reputation isn't exactly favorable, since she got us kicked out of the Garden. However, the study guide leads you through the positive aspects of that trial and tribulation, and lets you take a away the positive and inspirational contributions Eve made to all of us. I recommend this book for any Woman seeking to further her spiritual self.
