Women everywhere marvel at those â€œgood girlsâ€ in Scriptureâ€“Sarah, Mary, Estherâ€“but on most days, thatâ€™s not who they see when they look in the mirror. Most women (if theyâ€™re honest) see the selfishness of Sapphira or the deception of Delilah. They catch of glimpse of Jezebelâ€™s take-charge pride or Eveâ€™s disastrous disobedience. Like Bathsheba, Herodias, and the rest, todayâ€™s modern woman is surrounded by temptations, exhausted by the demands of daily living, and burdened by her own desires.,So whatâ€™s a good girl to do? Learn from their lives, says beloved humor writer Liz Curtis Higgs, and by Godâ€™s grace, choose a better path. In ,Bad Girls of the Bible,, Higgs offers a unique and clear-sighted approach to understanding those â€œother womenâ€ in Scripture, combining a contemporary retelling of their stories with a solid, verse-by-verse study of their mistakes and what lessons women today can learn from them.,Whether they were â€œBad to the Bone,â€ â€œBad for a Season, but Not Foreverâ€ or only â€œBad for a Moment,â€ these infamous sisters show women how ,not, to handle the challenges of life. With her trademark humor and encouragement, Liz Curtis Higgs teaches us how to avoid their tragic mistakes and joyfully embrace grace.
