Have you ever whispered to yourself, I’ll be a better mom tomorrow…but tomorrow never comes? Maybe you’re comparing yourself to other moms and feel you aren’t measuring up. But don’t lose hope. Just as moms in Scripture learned from life’s ups and downs, with God’s help, you can become the mom you long to be. Moms of the Bible explores timeless life lessons from Bible moms of all types, revealing how their stories of failure, faith, and hope can help you fulfill your own calling with confidence. From the redeemed Rehab to the horrible Herodias, each story unveils eye-opening insights and powerful applications that can help you as you seek to raise up children who impact their generation with fearless faith. Author Rhonda Stoppe engages you with the warmth and wisdom of a trusted friend who’s been there herself. For mothers of all ages and stages—including step, adoptive, foster, and grandmothers raising their grandkids—this uplifting look at the moms of Scripture will empower you to influence the culture in profound ways through your sacred ministry of motherhood.
What'd I Think? Divided into three parts - fearless moms, flawed moms, and faithful moms - this is an open and honest discourse on how God has used moms throughout history to change the world. It is a deep dive into motherhood that uses scripture and examples of the Bible, but couples each with the author's personal stories to bring these Biblical stories into the more modern age and make them more relatable.
This is a quick read and each chapter links to a more audio-based version, which is a nice addition to the book for those of us on the go. The chapters end with “Life Lessons” and add practical insight for the reader.
This would be a good book for a mom’s Bible study. From the first chapter on the story of the prostitute, Rahab, to the last chapter about unnamed women in the Bible, you will be seen, encouraged, and strengthened.
