My only caveat is that I wish the title didn’t make it hard for men to read. Women of the Word will help anyone who reads it to find their way deeper into the Word of God without having to be seminary educated, a genius, or even an especially good student. Too many people-men and women-opt for just reading a few verses and hoping for some inspiration, rather than discovering the meaning of the text in the sweep of God’s redemptive plan. “I found Women of the Word to be so practical in the way it demystifies serious Bible study. Matt Chandler , Lead Pastor, The Village Church, Dallas, Texas President, Acts 29 Church Planting Network Her approach in teaching people how to grow in their knowledge of the Scriptures is accessible and helpful regardless of whether you have been a Christian for decades and feel like it’s too late for you or you are a young believer who is hungry to know and understand the God of the Bible.” She is one of the better Bible teachers I’ve had the opportunity to hear. Jen Wilkin takes knowing the God of the Bible seriously. That’s why I’m glad you are holding this book. “I have a passion for people to see and savor the God of the Bible, and a corresponding frustration when I see the hurt, loss, and lack of confidence that accompanies a lack of biblical literacy. “Wilkin’s challenges to the status quo, grounded in years of observation, ring with gentle wisdom and guide readers in how to study the Bible with greater depth.” (July 14, 2014)
