The Women of the Bible Speak: The Wisdom of 16 Women and Their Lessons for Today PDF AZW3 EPUB MOBI TXT Download

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER! The women of the Bible lived timeless stories—by examining them, we can understand what it means to be a woman of faith.People unfamiliar with Scripture often assume that women play a small, secondary role in the Bible. But in fact, they were central figures in numerous Biblical tales. It was Queen Esther’s bravery at a vital point in history which saved her entire people. The Bible contains warriors like Jael, judges like Deborah, and prophets like Miriam. The first person to witness Jesus’ resurrection was Mary Magdalene, who promptly became the first Christian evangelist, eager to share the news which would change the world forever.In The Women of the Bible Speak, Fox News Channel’s Shannon Bream opens up the lives of sixteen of these Biblical women, arranging them into pairs and contrasting their journeys. In pairing their stories, Shannon helps us reflect not only on the meaning of each individual’s life, but on how they relate to each other and to us. From the shepherdesses of ancient Israel who helped raise the future leaders of the people of God, to the courageous early Christians, the narrative of the Bible offers us many vivid and fascinating female characters. In their lives we can see common struggles to resist bitterness, despair, and pride, and to instead find their true selves in faith, hope, and love. In studying these heroes of the faith, we can find wisdom and warnings for how to better navigate our own faith journeys. The Women of the Bible Speak outlines the lessons we can take from the valor of Esther, the hope of Hannah, the audacity of Rahab, and the faith of Mary. In broadening each woman’s individual story, Shannon offers us a deeper understanding of each, and wisdom and insights that can transform our own lives today.

“Shannon Bream reminds us: when women of God speak, we’re wise to listen, take note, and learn. I’ve found it true in my own life, and Shannon’s book is a worthy reminder, revealing rich life lessons found in the lives of biblical women.” — Max Lucado, pastor and New York Times bestselling author “Women of the Bible have made significant contributions, and God used them to change the course for everyone. Shannon introduces us to the brave, noble, and sometimes vulnerable or broken women in the Bible. This book is a helpful tool to demonstrate—no matter what you are going through—that other women experienced the same and still came out on top.” — Ainsley Earhardt, New York Times bestselling author of The Light Within Me“In The Women of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream offers valuable examples of how to live a faithful life. Through these warm and engaging stories, Shannon reveals how central women were to God’s story in the Bible. They were courageous queens, strong mothers, and wise prophets. They defended Israel and were the first Christian evangelists. There are lessons for all of us in this book” — Michael W. Smith, Grammy award winning singer-songwriter“Shannon takes us directly into the lives of women in the Bible and, more specifically, into their hearts through their very own words, emotions, and interactions. She reminds us that throughout history, God has valued women as part of His plan of salvation, even purposing one to bear the Savior of the world. With so much focus today on women trying to obtain worth and value, this book provides a clearer picture of the value God has always placed on each of us. We will never have to fight for what we already have.” — Missy Robertson, New York Times bestselling coauthor of The Women of Duck Commander“Creative and colorful, captivating and compelling – here are the biblical accounts of sixteen women whose stories remain ever relevant to today’s cultural moment. Let Shannon enlighten and encourage you with these ancient lives that can bring us the courage and commitment we all need in these tumultuous times.”  — Lee Strobel, best-selling author of The Case for Christ and The Case for Miracles“Shannon Bream is a strong, inspiring woman with a powerful impact…a world-changer! In ‘Women of the Bible’ she writes about Biblical women who were each world-changers in their own way – women whose powerful stories teach us truths we need today. Thanks Shannon for shining God’s light…through your book and your life!” — Rebecca St. James, Grammy Award winning singer-songwriter  “Shannon Bream’s book, The Women of the Bible Speak, flies in the face of ‘cancel culture’ with real stories from real women in biblical times who tackled some of the same problems we face today as a society. I recommend The Women of the Bible Speak for anyone to learn more about these pivotal players in history.” — Kevin Sorbo, producer, director“Shannon Bream’s newest book The Women of the Bible Speak is a fascinating study of sixteen strong women who were instrumental in the history of Israel and the early church. Shannon doesn’t treat these characters as plaster saints but as flawed, but faithful, individuals God used mightily.  Thanks, Shannon, for this fresh reminder of God’s willingness to offer a new beginning for anyone who asks!”  — Dr. Robert Jeffress, Pastor, First Baptist Church, Dallas, Fox News Contributor“In the pressures of contemporary life, we often fail to make time to learn from those who have gone before us. In The Women of the Bible Speak, Shannon Bream allows the reader to walk closely with sixteen women and learn from their struggles and successes. I highly recommend it to both female and male readers.” — Gary Chapman, Ph.D., author of The 5 Love Languages”The Women of the Bible Speak, by Shannon Bream, is a crash course for every woman seeking a closer relationship with the Lord.

  • Shannon is a good newscaster so you would think she would do her research. The first story I read was Rachel and Leah. Page 2 of the story Shannon wrote that as soon as the father Isaac died Esau announced he wanted to kill Jacob. Isaac didn’t die until after Jacob returned from running away 20 years later! Jacob and Esau had made up and buried their father Isaac together. I stopped reading and threw the book aside. If there is wrong information on the second page of a story then I can’t trust any if it. When you write about God’s words you need to get it right. Shannon is making money on wrong info unless she markets it as fiction.
  • Really disliked this book. It’s basically her interpretation of the women in the Bible and her opinion on what *probably* happened. It was really biased toward representing them in a certain way. She even tries to interpret their thoughts and feelings in a really biased way. Would not recommend for anyone. I’d say read the Bible and learn about the women that way!
  • I’ve been reading this like a novel! This is the only book I’ve been able to sit still and read during this whole pandemic. I’m surprised to find the women of the Bible so relatable I’m going though tough times and struggling. Shannon doesn’t sugar coat their imperfections and explains they – and we – are good and bad and just human. And the book makes you think how God uses their and our imperfections and sins for His purposes. It’s so uplifting!I strongly encourage you to read it and give it to your friends and family and have book studies about the women in the Bible (there are group questions at the end of each chapter.)Shannon was clearly inspired by the Holy Spirit to write this book during these hard times. As an anchor on Fox, Shannon uses her journalism skills to give the book the facts, history, context and scripture. I’m learning a lot about the women in the Bible- some I never paid much attention.But the power in the book is that it’s not just the facts. Shannon is humble about her own struggles in life and has truly a non-judgemental empathy for us. There are lines in the book that read, reread, underline and then stare off and think about how I’m being challenged to follow God more closely. (See just one page from my book in the photo above.)I know from her first book that Shannon was raised in a deeply Christian home and went to Christian college, so all those years of study show in her confidence in analyzing scripture. Also, as a longtime TV anchor, she has a style of writing that brings the viewers/reader into the story and moves along at a brisk pace. I can actually hear her voice from TV as I read along – and I don’t have the audio book!Thank you, Shannon, for making these women in the Bible come to life and inspire me to be less afraid and less ashamed of my human imperfection so that I can look more to what God’s purpose for me is here on earth.
  • stories you’ve known since childhood – you’ll rejoice at the experience!Shannon Bream has compiled a collection of paired biographical sketches that span the entirety of the Holy Bible, from Genesis thru Christ’s resurrection. By taking two women and partnering them in a chapter together, we get an opportunity to compare and contrast their natures and the way they respond in a given situation.Each chapter is divided into 3 parts: one part for each of the subjects and the last part is 4-5 questions designed to summarize the study, propose areas for further tho’t or investigation and deepen your faith. There’s no accusation or preaching just solid biblical, inductive study principles.Shannon has an engaging style that made me want to keep reading. Facts are presented, without being dry, and the information is relative for today’s people. The chapters aren’t overly long and can be broken down into 2 or 3 parts as your schedule permits. If you’re looking for a fresh Bible study, this would make a great one and could be used for personal or group study.A breath of fresh air and encouragement for one and all📚
  • I love reading about women in the Bible. I was anxious to buy Shannon’s book, curious how she was going present/write these stories. I love and have read God’s Word and have also read several books about women in the Bible. Shannon’s book does not disappoint. She pairs up 16 women, writing their story. The first chapter is on Sarah and Hagar, telling each of their stories and how we can relate and applications to help us hold tight to our Faith. I also love that Shannon gives Scripture references to back up facts… The book is very well written. Thank you, Shannon Bream.Update: the story of (Rachel and ) Leah is a bit confusing. Four sons of Leah are named, yet twice the author says Leah was the mother of five sons. Leah actually gave birth to six sons and one daughter (Genesis 30:19-21), and had two more sons by her concubine.Love the song of Deborah, which I had never focused on it before. HOWEVER another huge typo for those readers that are new and drawn to the Word (Bible) from reading Shannon’s book. The message that is inferred that Deborah is sending is found in Judges 5:31, not Judges 5:3-10. 🤭
  • I received Shannon’s new book yesterday and have already started reading it! It is such a breath of fresh air and hope for these times of Covid and the turmoil within our beloved country.Thank you, Shannon!
  • This book doesn’t read like a lot of study or research went into drafting it. I find it to be mostly opinionated at best. Disappointing purchase. Not recommended if you’re looking for accurate, biblical based context of these women in the Bible.
  • There are clear biblical inaccuracies and the author takes far too many liberties in her assertions of what the women of the Bible said, felt, thought and their spectrum of influence. If you want to read it borrow it from your local library, don’t waste your money. I would not recommend it.
  • An immensely readable book conveying much information on women whose contribution to our faith is easily underestimated.
  • LOVE this authors writing style. I actually hate reading but I’m trying…after I finished this nook, I went straight back to the start to read again to take more detailed notes. Really enjoying it! Only thing I don’t like are the study questions…no answers available so it’s more for your own mind prodding to figure out?!? But I’d buy anything by this author again.
  • This was a very interesting book to read what with comparing two different women at a time. Enjoyed it
  • Bought it for my wife. She loved the book.
  • I am really enjoying this book.
