Desperate Women of the Bible

By Jo Kadlecek
Published by Baker Books

Looking around this world, I constantly see desperation for money, fame and other things. This reality only makes me more desperate for the Lord. In Desperate Women of the Bible, Jo Kadleck gives biblical examples of other women who share that desperation.

By intertwining personal accounts and the stories of these eight nameless women from the New Testament, Kadlecek provides a clear yet challenging approach to using our daily desperations to draw closer to God and His desires for our life. In the middle and end of each chapter, reflection questions are provided to help the reader process the stories as they go.

Desperate Women of the Bible is a great study for the individual, as well as a powerful resource for your Bible study groups.
