Courageous Women for Teens: A Study on the Heroines of Biblical History

by Stacy Mitch, Emily Stimpson

Courageous Women for Teens by Stacy Mitch with Emily Stimpson brings to teen girls the excellence of Stacy Mitch’s Courageous Bible study series for adult women. Drawing again upon the richness of our Catholic tradition, Stacy explores authentic Christian feminism as she guides teen girls into the world and Word of God. This Bible study brings to life the heroic women who helped shape salvation history. God used these women—with all their vices and virtues—to bring the world one step closer to Jesus Christ. Teen girls today also have a role God wants them to play in His story of salvation—because the story isn’t over yet!

I won this Bible study through GoodReads First Read program.

I am not a woman, a teen or a Catholic. I do, however, think that anything that can get a teenage girl to read the Bible is great. Being a Protestant I had never heard of Judith or the Maccabean Woman before. I was also able to see some of the differences between the Catholic and Protestant faiths. Some of which include confession and the view of Mary, mother of Jesus.

I enjoyed getting back into the Bible to refresh my memory of many of the Biblical heroines such as: Eve, Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, Jochebed, Rahab, Deborah, Jael, Ruth, Hannah, Abigail, Michal, Bathsheba, Esther, Mary the mother of Christ and Mary Magdalene.

Got me reading the Bible again which is good.

This was a wonderful book that focuses on the Woman of the Bible. It's nice to see the women getting some attention and mention. Religion is mainly revolved around men, so this book was very refreshing and really good for Teens!
