The women of the Bible were real people with real problems. They grieved over infertility, the sickness of their children, and the death of loved ones. They battled worldliness, anxiety, envy, bitterness. Weak male leadership disheartened them. This book tells the biblical stories of 13 women who struggled with such problems.

Real Women, Real Problems may be read as a devotional book or studied in a women’s Bible class. The illustrative stories in each chapter (most of them fictional) highlight the relevance of the biblical accounts. The discussion questions after each chapter encourage readers to see themselves in the pages of the Bible and to support other women wrestling with difficulties.
