Women's Books & Bible Studies
|
Cynthia Heald's Bible Study books have been very helpful to me in the past... (Becoming a Woman of Excellence, Becoming a Woman of Freedom, Becoming a Woman of Prayer, and more...) |
You might also look into The Precepts Bible studies ---by Kay Arthur---one disagreeable part is that men are sometimes in her audience and certainly in her reading audience. This is objectionable to many men and women who understand form the Word that women are not to be in authority over a man. |
God's Priceless Woman

---a Proverbs 31 study |
...and, of course, there are surely many many more to choose from!!! |

Some folks you may want to read up on
before
you invest in purchasing and/or reading their materials:
Rick Warren and the Purpose Driven______
and the world peace, world hunger and whatever else purpose.
* Please be informed about the different authors you may read. It is so imperative that you know the spiritual/Biblical position of an author when reading books and materials...
some things read so well, sound so good and yet are flawed in that they contain untruths or partial untruths.
In the last days there will be many who will be deceived.
