There are different types of women in the Bible, both good and bad.  Liz Curtis Higgs has decided to focus this book on the “bad” women.  This book focuses on Eve, Potiphar’s wife, Delilah, Lot’s wife, Michal, Sapphira, Jezebel, woman at the well, Rahab and the sinful woman.  These women were each “bad” in their own ways.

Bad Girls of the Bible explains each of these women and the discussion at the end of each chapter enables the reader to explore more.

My thoughts-

I thought this was an awesome book.  I really enjoyed reading the modern story, the biblical story, and the short study section at the end of each chapter. 

My favorite part of each chapter was the study section.  I know there is a little bit of a “bad” girl in me, so I knew it was important to use the lessons learned and questions to delve into my own life to make sure that I learned from these women of the past.  I know I have learned from these women, so I can be a “good” girl.

This is a book that all women should read, so they know that God is still there for them.  Women can learn from the past to do better in the future.
