Women everywhere marvel at those good girls in Scripture-Sarah, Mary, Esther-but on most days, that's not who they see when they look in the mirror. Most women (if they're honest) see the selfishness of Sapphira or the deception of Delilah. They catch of glimpse of Jezebel's take-charge pride or Eve's disastrous disobedience. Like Bathsheba, Herodias, and the rest, today's modern woman is surrounded by temptations, exhausted by the demands of daily living, and burdened by her own desires. So what's a good girl to do?

Women everywhere marvel at those good girls in Scripture-Sarah, Mary, Esther-but on most days, that's not who they see when they look in the mirror. Most women (if they're honest) see the selfishness of Sapphira or the deception of Delilah. They catch of glimpse of Jezebel's take-charge pride or Eve's disastrous disobedience. Like Bathsheba, Herodias, and the rest, today's modern woman is surrounded by temptations, exhausted by the demands of daily living, and burdened by her own desires. So what's a good girl to do? Learn from their lives, says beloved humor writer Liz Curtis Higgs, and by God's grace, choose a better path. In Bad Girls of the Bible, Higgs offers a unique and clear-sighted approach to understanding those other women 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 Bad to the Bone, Bad for a Season, but Not Forever or only Bad for a Moment, 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.

We are thoroughly enjoying this Bible Study. Lots of invigorating discussion; the ladies are getting more and more involved.
Great insights with levity and seriousness - not mutually exclusive.

I found this book to be very interesting, I love the format of this book and I like the questions asked at the end of the chapter. I recommend this book to all those who seek to learn about the bible but for some reason choose not to read the bible.

Insightful & entertaining
This is a part of a popular series of Bible Studies. It is Biblically accurate & sheds a modern light on the Old & New Testament characters & their situations.

Imagine this....
This book has to be the best I've ever read. There are 3 parts to every story, the fictional story, a break down of the scripture and charachter in them, and the questions. It was a very easy book to read and very hard to put down. It was full of humor and the questions were thought provoking and not at all like boring research questions. I will and have recommend this book to everyone!
