Publisher Comments:

Writing with African American women in mind, Renita Weems probes beneath the surface to find out how the women of Scripture felt about themselves-by looking at how they treated other women. Believing that a common thread of sacred female experiences continues to bind centuries of women, Weems offers the hope that "we are just a sister away from our healing."

In nine chapters, Weems examines the relationships of Hagar and Sarah, Naomi and Ruth, Martha and Mary, Jephthah's Daughter and the mourning women, Miriam and her sister-in-law, the women who followed Jesus, Vashti and Esther, Elizabeth and Mary, and Lot's Wife and her daughters. Each chapter includes study questions for group discussion.

"A milestone in women's literature . . . that connects women today across class, culture, race, and time. Renita Weems is one of the most important thinkers of our time."-Susan Taylor, Editor-in-Chief, Essence Magazine
