Download or read book A Typical Woman written by Abigail Dodds and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2019-01-17 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Woman Through and Through In a culture that can belittle womanhood on the one hand—making it irrelevant—and glorify it on the other—making it everything—it’s hard to know what it really means to be a woman. But when we understand womanhood through the lens of Scripture, we see that we need a bigger category for what God has called “woman.” This book breathes fresh air into our womanhood, reminding us what life in Christ—as a woman—looks like. When we see that we are women in all we do, we can be at peace with how God has created us, recognizing womanhood as an essential part of Christ’s mission and work.
Download or read book She Shall Be Called Woman written by Marie Holt and published by Axiom Press Publishers. This book was released on 2017-09-04 with total page 68 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Many women of the Bible have not been mentioned by name. Noah's wife was alluded to only as his spouse, but her role had to have been an important one. Noah must have desperately needed her by his side as together they forged into the unknown. Other women in the Bible were not mentioned at all although they must have been there. For example, the innkeeper's wife surely played a large role on that night in Bethlehem when Jesus was born. Marie Holt uses her vivid imagination to reach into the minds of some of these unnamed and unmentioned women. Their stories of fear, injustice, tragedy, courage, grace, and God's intervening love grip our imaginations and teach us timely principles. Also includes the stories of: - The Persistent Widow--Dealing With Injustice - Jephthah's Daughter--Facing Tomorrow - The Israelite Midwife--Making a Difference - Pilate's Wife--Sharing Your Convictions - The Samaritan Woman--Accepting the Gift of Grace - The Bahurim Woman--Telling the Truth - The Widow Of Zarephath--Holding on to Your Trust - David's Mother--Letting a Loved One Go As we look into the persona of these women, we see how each of them had an experience that women of today can use to heal, grow, and move forward.
Download or read book A Woman Called Moses written by Jean-Christophe Attias and published by Verso Books. This book was released on 2020-04-14 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if there was another Moses, very different from the one we know? According to tradition, Moses wrote the first five books of the Bible. He is depicted there in a surprising way: with and against God; with and against his people; bringer of the Tablets of the Law, which he breaks; a stuttering prophet, guide to a Promised Land entry to which remains forbidden to him, and dead in an unknown tomb... Highly confusing for those who imagine a Moses carved out of a single block. By way a series of possible portraits - including one of a female Moses - Jean-Christophe Attias follows the metamorphoses of the Hebrew liberator through ages and cultures. Drawing on rabbinical sources as well as the Bible itself, he examines the words of the texts and especially their silences. He discovers here a fragile prophet, teacher of a Judaism of the spirit, of wandering, and of incompleteness. Receive and transmit. Listen, even when the message is confusing. Insistently question, especially when there is no answer. And always, remain free. This seems to be the Judaism of Moses. A Judaism that speaks to believers and others - to Jews, of course, but also far beyond them, inviting its hearers to have done with tribal pride, the violence of weapons, and the tyranny of a special place.

Download or read book A Woman Called Job written by LaDena Renwick-Tilley and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2006-02 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As human beings, we have what is called a "pain threshold." When we pass beyond this threshold, we enter into the realm of helplessness. LaDena Renwick-Tilley's memoir, A Woman Called Job shows that through suffering, the glorious works of God will be made evident. The Bible tells us that God never leaves us-that He is keeping watch over his own. That no matter what comes, we as Christians can call upon God, knowing he is our refuge and strength. Job is the first of five books commonly referred to as The Books of Poetry. It gives a concise summary of Job in that we are given wisdom on how to suffer. In Job 42:1-6, Job eventually realized the awesome glory and grace of God as a result of his sufferings and how trials can be turned into triumphs. Like the Book of Job, this memoir details how the righteous should bear up under suffering. It is an example of perseverance and offers inspiration and comfort to all, afflicted or not.

Download or read book The Book of Womanhood written by Amy F. Davis Abdallah and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2015-10-20 with total page 222 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Christian womanhood. What does it mean? When does it happen--at a certain age, status, or maturity? How do we know we're no longer girls? And when we've figured that out, how will others know to call us "woman" rather than "girl"? Christian women don't usually get a rite of passage in which they are named "woman." Seeing this need, Amy Davis Abdallah created such a rite, and this book accompanies it. No need to be in her rite of passage, however, to name yourself "woman." Read this book and then sit down with some friends to talk about it over tea, coffee, and/or chocolate. Let The Book of Womanhood create a path through the confusion by its flexible framework of finding identity through developing relationship with God, self, others, and creation. Amy writes simply as one perhaps further along in her journey of womanhood, and she doesn't write alone. She includes the stories of biblical women, of friends young and old, and even more. The diverse voices come together as a cloud of witnesses--encouraging us in our individual journeys. Read for empowerment. Read for transformation. Read. And become the woman of God you were created to be.

Bunny Wilson, and Dorothy Patterson.

Download or read book You Can Trust God to Write Your Story written by Nancy DeMoss Wolgemuth and published by Moody Publishers. This book was released on 2019-09-03 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: WHAT’S GOD DOING IN YOUR STORY? Our kids beg us for stories at bedtime or while we drive; we gather around firepits and dinner tables to tell and retell our favorite tales—the more dramatic the better. But when it comes to our actual lives, we prefer something less sensational, even boring—sunny skies and smooth sailing, please and thank you. We want our own stories to be predictable, safe, controllable, and catastrophe-free. When plans fall apart, jobs are lost, kids wander off, doctors give bad reports, we often wonder, "What are you doing, God? Are you sure you have this under control? It doesn’t really seem like it right now." God is the master Storyteller. He’s writing your story and it’s a part of His bigger, grander, eternal Story. But we’re still in the middle. We haven’t gotten to the happy ending yet, and it can be hard to trust Him in the thick of our struggles. That’s why Robert and Nancy share their own story, friends’ stories, and the stories of people in the Bible who have faced life-altering challenges, but, in the end, have found God to be faithful. Learn why you really can trust God to write your story—no matter what plot twists you may encounter along the way. "This is a unique and charming book, integrating stories of God’s providence from His people and His Word. Nancy and Robert write personally and beautifully, infusing readers with a Christ-centered vision, hope, and trust for the future." -Randy Alcorn, author of Heaven, Giving is the Good Life, and Deception "You Can Trust God to Write Your Story is an amazing book whose title says it all. For if you are a follower of Jesus, every day of your life—whether you feel like it or not—is weighted with kingdom purpose, eternal significance, and a royal destiny filled with joy and contentment. Let my dear friends, Robert and Nancy, help you embrace the mysteries of the Lord’s Providence. For when it comes to happy endings, you can’t find a better Author than the God of the Bible. Happy endings are His forte—turn the page, trust Him, and discover it for yourself." -Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center
