“Jesus felt the pain of those who grieved; spoke to the unacceptable; healed the sick; extended grace to the sinner; made the crippled whole.”
This six week study on the women in Jesus’ life is one that demonstrates the compassion of a Savior. This bible study covers women Jesus encountered during his life and ministry. Each days lesson takes approximately 20 minutes to complete and there is a lesson for each of the five days of the week.
Some of the women covered are:
Mary
The Sinful Woman.
Canaanite Woman
Mary & Martha of Bethany
The Adulterous Woman
and much more!
I went through this study on my own, but this would also be great for a woman’s bible study group. I believe The Women In Jesus’ Life would help open up a lot conversation concerning struggles women face then and today. Through it all you find a compassionate, forgiving Savior.
If you are looking for a women’s bible study this would be a great one to consider.

Thanks so much, Lori, for taking the time to review my Bible study. I appreciate you mentioning that the study will open up honest conversation about the struggles women face today. That’s when real life-change happens!
Sounds like another wonderful Bible study by Mindy. I will check it out. There are so many parallels to the women from Jesus’ day to today. We seem to still have the same struggles in some areas.
Your book sounds so interesting in terms of bringing to light the role of WOMEN in the bible. Growing up the women were not really emphasized as having any major role really except maybe RUTH and of course, Mary. But even those two were given just a few lines. I am so interested to see how you bring these women and others to the forefront and give us real women to model. I look forward to reading this as soon as a copy is available. I am sorry I have not read your work before but if this proves to be food for the soul, I intend to read more of your works.
Keep writing there is a real need for this as there are deep struggles with faith in this ever changing society with its gray areas not clearly defined. THANKS for daring to write this theme in a world where GOD is being reduced to a ‘g’ in America

Such a curious and much needed emphasis placed on the women in the life of Jesus. This is undoubtedly a very loving and revealing story about the women who thought and met challenges much the way today’s women do. Please add me to the giveaway and thanks for the chance to win….I hope I do.
A Friend in Christ,
