Mom, I have a question: Does God think boys are more important than girls, because all we ever learn about in church are boys? This question, from Lauren L. Nelson’s 7-year-old daughter, led her to write SHEROES of the Bible. Many have heard of the remarkable men in scripture but lesser known are the dynamic women who trusted God and did astonishingly courageous things when they chose faith over fear. SHEROES of the Bible awakens girls to the reality that God can use them to radically change the world. Within, Lauren shares the 20 stories of 26 women from the Bible who became SHEROES when they chose to trust God in difficult situations. As its name portrays, SHEROES of the Bible provides strong female role models who are relevant to past, present, and future generations. Lauren presents a well-rounded collection of stories with ethnically diverse illustrations that are sure to impact children all over the world. SHEROES of the Bible is needed in every household, church, and discipleship program around the globe. Girls, young and old, will be inspired to become the dynamic, strong women that God created them to be. Included in each story are three to four devotional questions to help children personally apply what they have learned so that their faith becomes their own personal experience.

Great stories. Everyone loves them, and long before they were officially recognized as "God's Word," the accounts in our present-day Bible were preserved and passed along because they were great stories. They had all the essential ingredients: great characters, heroism, villainy, and the triumph of the human spirit. And, at the heart of each, there was the same profound message: we have a God who is passionately in love with us and cannot rest until we show that same passionate love to one another. This is what Jim Philipps wants his readers, and catechists in particular, to understand and share. He guides them through Bible basics by sharing the stories of remarkable men and women in the Old and New Testaments. He explores the intriguing parables of Jesus, as well as stories from Acts of the Apostles and the adventures of St. Paul. Finally he takes a reverent look at the scriptural basis of a storytelling tool that has caught generations of Christians in its power--the rosary, and in particular the reflections on the "mysteries of light," which tell the story of the ministry of Jesus. Each brief chapter includes a bit of Bible scholarship to help readers place the story in its proper context; a reflection that offers a deeper experience of the story; and a series of questions and activities that make personal connections to everyday life. This is a great introduction to the Bible and its stories and a wonderful resource for catechists and all who want to share and explore these stories with others.

The Bad Bitch Bible is written to enforce a more realistic way of thinking about the uncomfortable and inconvenient situations life presents. Though many think being a Bad Bitch is based on appearance, it's truly about the total person and how they deal with life's ups and downs. The book in totality will help you expand your circle of control while limiting your margin of concern.Chapters such as "A Bad Bitch Ain't Hating, and a Hating Bitch Ain't Bad", "Don't Be Stupid, Bitch", "Let It Go, Bitch" and "You Can't Take Your Bitches Everywhere" keep the energy spicy and present life lessons that we all should come to terms with. The book is a simple read that will enforce a new way of analyzing life's bullshit so that you can still push toward your goals even when opposition is attempting to throw you off course. Bad Bitches aren't easily defeated, and this book is the reminder that there is nothing too hard to get past. This is the debut work of Kristopher Welcome as an author. His tone is light-hearted and warm, however, the messages are intentional and driven by his own personal experiences with life. Though the book is targeted to a female audience, the book has lessons that transcend race, gender, and sexual identity. The goal is to make readers find their strength in themselves as everyone should seek to serve as their own anchor when the waves of life start to rage.

What do you do when you are feeling called to a task much bigger than you? How do you respond when you sense God is asking you to pursue a particular vocation, and yet others around you are discouraging you from such a pursuit-because you're a woman? Where can you turn for empowering confidence? The voices of biblical women reveal the keys to resilient confidence you need to fulfill your unique purpose. Each of the 13 biblical women presented in this book was chosen by God-instead of a man-to be the first person in Scripture to experience God in a new way, to express a new truth about God, or to proclaim a new message from God. Hear afresh the voices of Eve, Hagar, Miriam, Deborah, Hannah, Huldah, Elizabeth, Mary of Nazareth, Anna, the Samaritan Woman, Martha, Mary Magdalene, and Lydia. Their stories offer the keys to resilient confidence! As our world spirals with continued consequences of women being treated as "less-than," these real women will teach you how to exhibit faithfulness, wisdom, courage, and leadership against the odds. See these biblical women's stories come to life in the context of world history and renew your confidence in your equal status with men as God's image-bearer capable of fulfilling God's call on your life. Be empowered! God highly values women's voices, abilities, and bodies!

Christians often look for a place to serve. We know a lot about the major characters of the New Testament: Paul, Peter, James, John, etc., and of course the Lord Jesus Himself. Also sprinkled among the pages of the New Testament are names mentioned almost in passing, quick references to people whose duties and deeds are not given much attention, people like Onesimus, Tertius, Phoebe. With a little study and thought, we discover they were involved in vital areas of spiritual work. This series of 26 lessons shows us that the church family depends just as much on the likes of Archippus and Epaphras, names we often forget, as it does Paul and Peter. Whether you are a new Christian or mature in the faith, this book will help you appreciate the contributions that every Christian can and should make to the work of the church.
