Inhaltsangabe

In Women of Character, Debra Evans introduces a dozen biblical and historical figures whose lives exemplify six life-changing character traits of a godly woman: Brokenness - spiritual awakening through repentance; Belief - the power of faith in the face of adversity; Surrender - intimacy through total yieldedness; Obedience - the transformational freedom of obeying God; Devotion - the wealth of a worshipful heart; and Service - replacing self-direction with God's calling. With a refreshingly accessible depth of thought, Evans portrays flesh-and-blood women with whom you'll immediately identify, from the wide-eyed adolescent to the jaded harlot. Their problems were the same as those we face today: Lack of faith. Loveless marriage. Sexual sin. Loneliness and loss. And though their stories span centuries, the pattern is clear - God's blessing of our lives arrives when our deeper hunger drives us to seek his presence in the face of adversity.
Woven throughout Women of Character are poignant prayers, interviews with contemporary women, and writings by classic Christian thinkers. More than an abstract devotional, Women of Character will change forever the way you think about saints. In these remarkable tales of empowerment, focus, and meaningful living, you will see the exquisite pattern God laid out for women throughout history - and be inspired to find your own place among "the company of heaven."
