In this thoroughly biblical and encouraging book, Nana Dolce opens up their lives and uncovers deep truths that shape our daily life and faith.

“Usually when we trace the line of offspring out of the promise of Genesis 3:15, it is the men who take center stage. But in this beautiful little book, Nana Dolce weaves the story of the Bible through the line of women in the Bible with simplicity and insight.”
Nancy Guthrie, Bible teacher and author of Even Better Than Eden

“All women hold within themselves the beauty and dignity of their Creator, because they are made in His image. We can’t see God, but we can know about Him through His creation, women included. But it is through the specific women in the Old Testament that we can see the shape and substance of our Savior coming into focus. Though flawed and often misguided, they point ahead to Jesus and help us understand (and long for) His necessary life, death, and resurrection. That’s why I’m so grateful for Nana Dolce and her beautifully descriptive reflections on the women of the Old Testament. These women and their stories set our hearts ablaze for Christ.”
Christine Hoover, author of Seek First the Kingdom and How to Thrive as a Pastor’s Wife

“It’s beautifully rich. It’s theologically deep. It’s a book that will help your heart to sing, as you see God’s character, his faithfulness and ultimately the Lord Jesus Christ unveiled, at the centre of women’s lives through the Bible. Read it, savour it and let Nana’s words enrich and deepen your understanding of God’s plan for all of history!”
