You’re about to meet three women named Mary, each
of whom has a life-changing encounter with Jesus. Mary of Bethany prepares the
way for the Lord’s burial when she anoints His feet and fills the air with her
perfume. His mother, Mary of Nazareth, remains by His side from His first
breath to His last, her loyalty unwavering. Mary Magdalene, delivered of seven
demons, bravely supports her Teacher through His darkest hours, then proclaims
the glorious news of His resurrection.
What a trio. What a Savior!
Your mind and emotions will be engaged and your
faith strengthened as each scene unfolds, preparing your heart for a richer,
deeper Easter experience. Liz Curtis Higgs, a seasoned Bible teacher and
award-winning novelist, combines her storytelling skills with a thorough
verse-by-verse study of Scripture as together you explore the remarkable lives
of The Women of Easter.
My Thoughts:
I'm not exactly sure what I thought this book was going to be about, I first thought it was a novelization of these women and Jesus. It's not, it is a personal telling from each of these women's point of view as they encounter Christ before his death and after. It is a perfect read in preparation of Easter, even after. I waited to read to get into the spirit of Easter.
