But the message of the Scriptures is incomplete without them. This Bible portion draws our attention to the insights hidden in their stories and the relevance of their lives to ours. This collection of the Gospels includes:

• Contributions written by women of diverse ethnicities, backgrounds, and vocations,
• Dozens of topical devotions,
• Special Biblical section introductions highlighting the needs and interests of women,
• Profiles on important figures in the Bible,
• Space and sensitivity for women to engage difficult and sensitive Bible passages,
• Fresh and candid insights into often-neglected Biblical passages and personalities.
