Ancient Israels Women Of Faith
$25.99
Do You Know the God of Ancient Israel’s Women of Faith?
Believers today are facing a profound spiritual poverty–an ignorance of the women who shaped their faith and, as a result, an incomplete understanding of the God those women faithfully served.
The inspired writers of the Old Testament mention over one hundred women by name and countless others in passing. Yet how many of us know the stories of these women and the God who wrote them?
*Sheerah built three cities and had one named after her.
*Jehosheba executed a covert operation to preserve the Davidic line.
*Miriam left us a legacy of worship that persists to this day.
Then there are the women who proclaimed the good news of God, prophesied truth to power, protected Israel from her enemies, relentlessly interceded for God to act, and passed along a living faith in the God who did. Each of these women and their stories finds a place in God’s redemptive plan for his creation.
In Ancient Israel’s Women of Faith, Claude Mariottini introduces readers to a fresh reading of Scripture that takes seriously these stories. In doing so, he challenges anachronistic, modern readings of the text by providing helpful contextual information, including nuances in the original language, histories of translation, and observations on the cultural, political, legal, economic, and religious landscapes of their time.
Readers of this title will walk away with new insights, questions, and areas for research, but, more importantly, they’ll walk away with a new understanding of the God of ancient Israel’s women of faith.

Mothers And Daughters Of The Bible Speak (Large Type)
$28.99God always keeps His promises, but not always in the way we expect….
“Have faith” is a phrase we hear all the time. But what does it actually look like to live it out? In The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream examines the lives of biblical women to see how God’s plans can turn our worlds upside down. She tells the story of Jochebed, a mother who took enormous risks to protect her son, Moses, from Pharaoh. Could Jochebed have imagined that God’s actual design for her son involved flight into exile and danger? And yet this was all part of the master plan to deliver Israel from slavery. Another biblical mother, Rebekah, made terrible choices in an attempt to ensure her son’s place in history. And a daughter, Michal, struggled to keep her faithless father, Saul, from sin, while battling pride in herself.
Through these stories, Shannon explains the intimate connection between faith and family–and how God’s unexpected agenda can redefine the way we think about family. Not all of these mothers and daughters in the Bible were paragons of virtue. Like us, they were human beings who faltered and struggled to do their best. While some heard God’s voice, others chose their own paths. Through the lens of their imperfections, we can see how God used their stories to bring about His divine plans. He’s still doing the same work in our lives today.
The Mothers and Daughters of the Bible Speak shows that faith is more often a twisting road than a straight line. Yet, as the stories of biblical families attest, at the end of these journeys lies greater peace and joy than we could ever imagine.
