Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

What can we learn from the women whose stories appear between the rebuilding days of Ezra and the songs of the Psalms?Some are familiar. Others appear for only a verse. Some are named, while others are known only as wives, daughters, singers, widows, queens, or groups of women standing within larger biblical events. Scripture even portrays cities and nations through feminine images such as Daughter Zion and Daughter Babylon. Each one gives us a unique doorway into the truth of God.In Women of Restoration: From Ruins to Worship, Marydell J. Potter continues her journey through the women of Scripture, slowing down to notice women who are often passed over in a quick reading of the Bible.Walk beside Shallum's daughters as they help rebuild Jerusalem's wall. Hear the women who cry out against injustice in Nehemiah. Enter the royal courts of Esther and consider the courage, counsel, influence, and consequences found there. Sit beside Job's wife in the ashes, remember the daughters Job lost, and meet Jemimah, Keziah, and Keren-happuch at the close of his story. Then enter the Psalms, where daughters, brides, widows, barren women, singers, and feminine images give language to worship, grief, justice, hope, and restoration.These Christ-centered devotions do not require a woman to have an entire chapter written about her before her presence matters. A name, a relationship, a single action, a place, or even one verse can lead us deeper into Scripture and reveal truths worth considering.Throughout these pages, you will encounter themes of rebuilding after loss, speaking truth, navigating power, grieving honestly, trusting God when answers do not come, receiving grace, resisting oppression, finding belonging in Christ, and learning to worship through both joy and sorrow.From the returning exiles of Ezra to the prayers and songs of the Psalms, every devotion ultimately points beyond human restoration to Jesus Christ-the King, Savior, and Redeemer in whom our deepest hope is found.Women of Restoration: From Ruins to Worship is an invitation to open your Bible, look again at the women within its pages, and discover how even the smallest details of their stories can draw us closer to the God who is still restoring, redeeming, and making all things new.
