Mothers of the Bible Speak to Mothers of Today

By Kathi Macias

Book Overview

The same God who has shown His faithfulness to mothers across time is faithful still to mothers today.
Daunting challenges that mothers face day in and day out are not unique to this time, and modern-day moms have much wisdom to gain from true examples recorded in Scripture. In Mothers of the Bible Speak to Mothers of Today, readers meet ordinary women of their day who, by God's incomparable grace, were used for extraordinary purposes. Readers will journey through the lives of 15 such mothers--like Eve, Sarah, Jochebed, Hannah, and Bathsheba of the Old Testament, continuing through the New Testament with stories such as those of Elizabeth, Salome, and Mary. Exploring heart issues like fear, discontentment, grief, and gratitude, readers will discover solutions through biblical models of prayer, sacrifice, and faithfulness.
Through these life lessons, the author points to the ultimate unfolding of God's eternal purposes across the seasons of motherhood. Each chapter ends with a "Making It Personal" section and an appropriate prayer. Beautifully designed, this book makes the perfect gift for a mother on any occasion.
