Item description for Bad Girls of the Bible DVD by Liz Curtis Higgs...
Overview
Women everywhere marvel at those "good girls" in Scripture-- Sarah, Mary, Esther, but on most days, that's not who they see when they look in the mirror. Most women (if they're honest) see the selfishness of Sapphira or the deception of Delilah. They catch of glimpse of Jezebel's take-charge pride or Eve's disastrous disobedience. Like Bathsheba, Herodias, and the rest, today's modern woman is surrounded by temptations, exhausted by the demands of daily living, and burdened by her own desires. So what's a good girl to do? Learn from their lives, says beloved humor writer Liz Curtis Higgs, and by God's grace, choose a better path. In Bad Girls of the Bible, Higgs offers a unique and clear-sighted approach to understanding those "other women" in Scripture, combining a contemporary retelling of their stories with a solid, verse-by-verse study of their mistakes and what lessons women today can learn from them. Whether they were "Bad to the Bone," "Bad for a Season, but Not Forever" or only "Bad for a Moment," these infamous sisters show women how not to handle the challenges of life. With her trademark humor and encouragement, Liz Curtis Higgs teaches us how to avoid their tragic mistakes and joyfully embrace grace.

Reviews - What do customers think about Bad Girls of the Bible DVD?
 | Awesome CD Jan 30, 2010 |
Higgs is great with this, although some of the "modern reditions" are a little lame, she provides a superlative and entertaining view of many of the biblical "bad girls." A firend and I would pop this in the CD player when we do frequent travelling, it maked the trips fun, and we even looked forward to the long drives when we could listen to another chapter. Bible study doesn't get any better than this.

| I teach a Bible Study group. We range in age from early 20s to middle 80s. Everyone loves the "Bad Girls" books. In the Spring, we studied "Slightly Bad Girls of the Bible", and now we have started "Bad Girls of the Bible". What a fun way to study! | | | | I strongly recommend this DVD! Jul 16, 2008 |
| I loved this presentation! Liz Curtis Higgs is such a caring, compassionate woman.. she even made me feel compassionate for Jezebel! I thought the message she presented was so inspiring.. I loved it! | | | | o.k. books better Jun 30, 2007 |
| I read the book first, which was very good. It brought the events of Biblical times into today. The video, not as good but I can't give it a bad rating, just not as good. It was more of a narrative presentation. | | | Write your own review about Bad Girls of the Bible DVD
