by Rev Marcia C. Fleischman (Author)
One day, while thinking about the miserable story of Lot's wife in the Old Testament, Rev. Marcia Fleischman, in a flash of insight, realized that the story had been written from a male view point based on an angry, punishing image of God. How would the story change if seen through the eyes of a woman? All the women's stories change when a feminine wisdom is applied. For instance, in the New Testament, Mary "Don't Mess with Me" Magadalene's seven "demons" turn out to be familiar to most women. Marcia retells these stories of the famous women of the Old Testament and the New Testament with a feminine, even feminist, twist. Told with passion and a bit of whimsy and written in rhyme, Marcia, illustrates each story with a corresponding picture, many containing a bit of anacronism for fun.
