Enjoy this free chapter on Hagar– The ‘Other Woman,’ from my book – Out of the Ashes, Women who rose to purpose out of brokenness.
Hagar candidly shares her account of what it was like for her, and her son Ishmael to be abandoned and rejected by his father. You will find more moving accounts as you dive into the lives of 13 biblical women who tell their stories in their own words. Their life experiences will resonate deeply with the challenges you face in modern life.
From confronting abuse and enduring rejection to navigating grief, surviving rape, dealing with the loss of a child, struggling with a rebellious child, or dealing with a chronic disease…
These ancient accounts are not so ‘ancient’ after all, for they hold timeless wisdom, encouragement and inspiration, providing you with guidance through your own struggles. They give you hope that the God who transformed their brokenness to healing and purpose will do the same for you.
