Some people need to read scripture every day, while others feel the need to dive deep just once a week. In an effort to help both groups learn more about the women of the Bible, I have come up with a 28-day reading plan that focuses specifically on the women of Genesis. I hope that we can look more deeply at their stories and notice when their voices are lifted up in scripture and when they are silenced.
We will also be releasing a weekly Bible study called "Reclaiming Our Stories: Women of Genesis" that focuses on all of these women every Monday, starting May 4. So you'll want to be on the lookout for that. We have six incredible folks contributing to that Bible study, so I am especially delighted to see it come to fruition.
