Learning from our Foremothers: A Spotlight on Bible Women

There are many inspiring women hidden in the corners of scripture, many of whom we rarely hear about.

Today is an opportunity to shine a spotlight on some of them. What can we learn from the women of Exodus 1 and 2? How might a female prophet hidden away in 2 Kings inspire us? What about stories of women oppressed and suffering? How might God be speaking to us through them? A reflective day with opportunity to ponder and pray.
