Women of the Old Testament

They were ordinary people. Most would not make headlines in any other history book but God's. Yet the women of the Old Testament made critical choices that led to extraordinary results. Through faith and strong character they rescued their families, led people out of bondage, gave birth to kings and saved an entire nation. Each one demonstrates the far-reaching consequences of everyday actions.
