Just really poor teaching. Sloppy. Poor examples of fruit.
Example—Martha as an example of Love in John 11; Sarah as an example of Patience in Gen 29.
They are literal examples of the opposite fruit in these passages. Self-centered.
Puts Rachel as example of patience bc of her waiting to marry Jacob for 14 years— it was only 7 + 1 week. Just frustrating. Little to no scripture refs or sources. Big stretches

*more frustrating than it is edifying.
The number of times I have written “NO” in the margin is upsetting. Loose interpretations, lots of liberties, false information, and just overall didn’t let the Bible lead the way.

Reading for a book club. Not my favorite so far. reading with a critical eye.I like the idea of the book. Poor execution through 1st chapter imo. Trying to chew & spit. Author makes a lot of assumptions of the biblical women she chose without really exegeting any passages.
Huge con is that all the sources used aren’t specifically cited AND 98% are all websites; of the 3 books cited—one is a dictionary. Bummer
