Sisters in Scripture

Sisters in Scripture looks at seven different pairings of women from the Old and New Testaments to explore their relationships to God and to one another. In considering their stories, participants are invited to explore their own relationship to God and to various others in their own lives. Each unit looks at a specific woman, provides background material, prayer, and reflection questions to help the reader understand and enter into the story and to explore her own life story. Participants are introduced to the concept of Midrash to encourage a creative response to the text. After reading, responding, and preparing at home, women come together for small group faith sharing, response and prayer. Lastly, "A Closer Look at the Text" introduces participants to the tools of biblical scholarship and builds on that foundation as the study progresses. Resources are given at the end of the study for a Day of Reflection for the group to further enhance and deepen their shared experience. +
