When it Comes to Badness, There's Nothing New Under the Sun
In her
best-selling book Bad Girls of the Bible, Liz Curtis Higgs breathed new
life into ancient stories depicting eight of the most infamous women in
scriptural history, from Jezebel to Delilah. Biblically sound and
cutting-edge fresh, Bad Girls already has helped thousands of women
experience God's grace anew by learning more about our nefarious
sisters.
And there are more where they came from! With Really Bad
Girls of the Bible, Liz reveals the power of God's sovereignty in the
lives of other shady ladies we know by reputation but have rarely
studied in depth:
- Bathsheba, the bathing beauty.
- Jael, the
tent-peg-toting warrior princess.
- Herodias, the horrible beheader.
- Tamar, the widow and not-so-timid temptress.
- Athaliah, the deadly
daughter of Jezebel.
And three ancient women whose names we do not know
but who have much to teach us:
- the ashamed Adulteress
- the bewitching
Medium of En Dor
- the desperate Bleeding Woman
The eye-opening
stories of these eight "Really Bad" women demonstrate one really
life-changing concept: the sovereign power of God to rule our hearts and
our lives with grace, compassion, and hope.
