About this audiobook
Women are an essential element in church history. Just as Deborah, Esther, and the New Testament Marys helped shape Bible history, so the women of the Reformed church have helped to make its history great.
In Reformation Women, Rebecca Vandoodewaard introduces readers to twelve sixteenth-century women who are not as well known today as contemporaries like Katie Luther and Lady Jane Grey. Providing an example to Christians today of strong service to Christ and His church, these influential, godly women were devoted to Reformation truth, in many cases provided support for their husbands, practiced hospitality, and stewarded their intellectual abilities. Their strength and bravery will inspire you, and your understanding of church history will become richer as you learn how God used them to further the Reformation through their work and influence.

- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Excellent book, one of the best biographies I have read.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Inspiring book broken up by one woman per chapter. Women who were queens to poor pastors wife faithfully serving the God of the Bible. Plenty of choices to identify with and a wonderful summary and exhortation by the author in the last chapter.
