In The Women of Easter, Liz Curtis Higgs uses her awesome gift of Bible-based storytelling to take readers into encounters with the Savior through the eyes of three women named Mary. Based on scripture from the gospels, Liz focuses on the days leading up to and including Christ's crucifixion and resurrection from the perspectives of this trio who knew Him well.The presentation of scripture provides an easy to follow flow of events that strongly engages readers. It can also encourage readers to dig deeper into the Bible for greater understanding. On her website, Liz offers a free leader's guide for anyone interested in using her book for a group Bible study. (You can find the guide here.)
I highly recommend The Women of Easter for anyone who wants to better feel and understand what it was like to personally share in the experience of these important events in the life of Christ.
Thanks to the Blogging for Books program for providing a copy of The Women of Easter. I was pleased to share my thoughts about the book.
