Description
A spiteful boss, a defiant employee, a manipulative mother, a desperate housewife, an envious sisterhoney, we know these women. Weve lived with them, worked with them, or caught a glimpse of them in our mirrors. Now lets take a look at their ancient counterparts in Scripture, Sarah mistreated her maidservant, Hagar despised her mistress, Rebekah manipulated her son, Leah claimed her sisters husband, and Rachel envied her fertile sister. They were far from evil, but hardly perfect. Mostly show more good, yet slightly bad. In other words, these matriarchal mamas look a lot like us. show lessTags

Covers Sarah, Hagar, Rebekah, Leah, and Rachel. Looks deeply into their motivations.
Her books are so informative and thought provoking. This is her 3rd book I've read.
