Glorious - Satterthwaite, Holly

. .

Résumé :
Glorious explores why women should celebrate and embrace their identity as a wonderful reflection of God's glory. Life is full of seasons. As women, sometimes we can feel confident and at other times completely invisible, and it is so often easy to get bogged down in the sheer busyness of 'doing' life. The women in the Bible were no different - they too struggled with issues like marital challenges, difficult friendships, grief and unfulfilled dreams - yet like all Scripture, their stories point to the character and glory of God. By studying their stories, Holly Satterthwaite invites us to see how God reveals his goodness through the female human existence. Each chapter in Glorious starts with a short Bible study and includes reflections on a biblical character and a particular aspect of women's lives and finishes with questions to help us think through and apply lessons in our own lives. As we lean into these biblical stories in Glorious, we gain a clearer vision of who God is, understand how he works through all the seasons of our lives, and are encouraged to reflect his glory to those around us. How will God's glory show in your story? Glorious will help you: Affirm and celebrate your identity as a beloved woman of God Help you grasp a bigger vision of who God is Encourage you whatever season of life you are in Access honest and biblical wisdom that you can apply to your life Provide a useful resource for small group or book club discussion...
