In this follow-up to his book The Thirteen Apostles, popular author J. Ellsworth Kalas focuses on several women of great faith who were crucial, in ways both obvious and understated, to the story of the New Testament. Kalas looks into the life and times of eleven different women. With his signature style, Kalas examines the Scriptures to see what we can learn about these women and what we can learn from them, and how each woman fit into as well as shaped the New Testament story. Chapters include: "Elizabeth: A Friend in Need" "Anna: She Knew How to Wait" "Martha, the Disciplined" "Mary, the Extravagant" "The Mighty Widow" "The Anonymous Evangelist" "Mary Magdalene: When Love Is Greater than Faith" "Mary, the Mother of Mark" "Dorcas: Worth a Miracle" "Lydia, the Businesswoman "Mary in Life and Legend" "Why Mary?" This book also includes a discussion guide.
A short easy to understand book about a few ladies of the New Testament. You can find yourself and others reflected in their stories. My edition came with a study guide for using it in a book study or for getting the most out of the pages. I recommend it highly

This was another good read. And another book which uses a lot of conjecture, but has the ring of truth about it.
