"Popular
storyteller Higgs takes a look at the vamps and tramps of the Bible,
searching for the lessons these wicked women have to teach. Higgs retells
these biblical stories with rollicking humor and deep insight as she
teaches about the nature of sin and goodness.
"Higgs
does such a remarkable job telling their stories that many of the Good
Book's 'bad girls' become downright sympathetic. Higgs is a refreshingly
astute biblical commentator . . . [she] explores the biblical narrative
with detailed line-by-line explications and characteristic side-splitting
humor"
"Higgs,
with her conversational style and characteristic humor, is the perfect
author to popularize such scholarship. While Jesus no doubt redeemed Mary
Magdalene's soul, Higgs has nobly rehabilitated her reputation" |
A perennial favorite from Liz Curtis Higgs!
"No one is good—except
God alone"
Mark 10:18
Women everywhere marvel at the "Good Girls" in Scripture. We admire the faithfulness of Ruth, the courage of Esther, and the humility of Mary. Yet when we look in our hearts, we may find the selfishness of Sapphira, the deception of Delilah, or Jezebel's take-charge pride instead!
What's a Good Girl to do? Learn from our biblical sisters and their disastrous mistakes, and by God's grace, choose a better, more redemptive path.
