Legacy of Faith: From Women of the Bible to Women of Today by Lydia Brownback

240 pages | $14.99 | Paperback | Published: 2002

Summary: Following examples of women of faith is a great way to learn how to become women of God. And the best examples are from the true stories in the Bible. Not all the women of the Bible were faithful to Christ. But we can learn from past women’s failures as well as their triumphs. Legacy of Faith highlights twenty-four of the Bible’s most prominent women. Brownback offers insight and practical application for today’s women. She reveals how we can claim the same promises of Christ as these women did—because God is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

“How can women seeking to live satisfying lives choose the right path? Brownback tackles this question by choosing twenty-four biblical women and exploring their success and failures when confronted by God’s slaim on their lives. There insights show we can continue to learn from women of Scripture.” – Linda M. Boice

“An exciting read, perfect for group studies or individual devotion. Brownback is a sensitive reader of the ancient text who knows how it transforms lives today. This is about women of the Bible, bu men and women should read it.” Tremper Longman III

“Identifies out propensity to direct our lives outside of God’s call. Brownback directs us to recognize our own folly and shows God’s work to set our feet on his path. An excellent book to stimulate us in obedience.” – Vesta Sproul
