How God Shaped Women of the Bible - and What He Wants to Do with You

What I found most interesting in this book is the historical value. It felt like John MacArthur stretched the information out to created this book. He took a lot of liberty in "imagining" how these women felt in those particular historical times. Whereas I thought it was interesting, it wasn't all taken from scripture. Many of the women's lives were similar to each other and we began discussing things that seemed to be redundant. Definitely not enough "meat" for a Bible Study. The leader had the workbook and used it to basically find new and different questions to be able to fill the 1-1/2 hours of time we had each meeting.

An easy and interesting read, but not to be used as a Bible Study, in my opinion.

Written so well, very easy to understand and clearly stated, enjoyed it very much and will refer to it for reference again and again. Ladies Bible Study and a few friends also enjoyed it very much for our study.

Our Women's Bible study is going through this book. It written so well and it brings these women to life. I love this book & would highly recommend it. I actually just bought it to take to my daughter that I am going to visit. I feel like I know these women now and it has been a blessing to me.

This is an excellent commentary on how God used these chosen women to fulfill his plan of bringing our promised Savior and Messiah into the world through the line of David exactly as He promised in His word. I was especially taken with the story of Rahab and how God chose a morally and socially unacceptable woman to carry out His plan and show how someone of pagan beliefs and circumstances can have faith and trust in the one true God who has the power to rescue and redeem all people from certain death. Excellent job by John MacArthur!

What better way to grasp the significance of women than to read the Bible and this book. If you're like me and not sure where to start, this book helps in the process. MacArthur provides a thorough look at 12 women in the Bible. Each woman may seem ordinary on the outside, but were extraordinary in their circumstances because of their faith in God. Great book to read!

Wonderful study. I ordered this because our small group was going to use this as a study for the next weeks of study. Last Sunday was the first lesson we discussed about what an extraordinary a Woman Eve was. We all enjoyed it and were greatly surprised about the unique way and questions about Eve were written. It really explained so many things about my relationship with my husband and especially how valued we women are to God. Sure nade for interesting and exciting comments.
Next week is Sarah and I have just started reading that and can't wait until next Sunday's Women's class discussion.

This book is very interesting with insights into the lives of these Biblical women that parallel some of our experiences. These were real people with whom I can relate in many ways.
The hard cover book did not have the study guide included in the back of the paperback. I was disappointed in that, as we are using this in a class setting.
