The Most Misunderstood Women of the Bible

What Their Stories Teach Us About Thriving

By: Mary E. DeMuth

Narrated by: Mary E. DeMuth

We live in a world of misunderstanding. People make up stories about us based on what they see, but they don’t truly know our inward journeys. Snap judgments punctuate our world. What if we could look at the lives of grossly misunderstood women of the Bible and mine truth from their stories? How would that change us?

Looking at Eve, Leah, Bathsheba, the Proverbs 31 Woman, and others, listeners will learn what these women can teach us about ourselves. Author Mary DeMuth combines her storytelling and scholarly skills to create a truly unique book that will help women understand misunderstanding, moving through and beyond it toward soul health.

If you only read one book in 2022 this is it!

This incredible book blessed my drive as I heard the audible version during a solo road trip. Immediately I was transported to a different time and got a glimpse of different cultures, different characters that all shared one common denominator and that was to give God the glory! The sad truth is that many of us are misunderstood and we misunderstand many- yet the God who sees uses it all for our good, His glory. Thank you Mary for for taking us on such an important journey and changing the way I process His story through His people forever.

Raw, beautiful, comforting

This is an insight look at these women. It brings a perspective of the human struggle when we are misunderstood, unloved, suffer loss, etc. and how God who sees, hears, loves, chooses, and comforts such people. As I listen to each story I am reminded of the beauty of our God’s ways and how he meets each woman where they are at.

New insite into old stories

In The Most Misunderstood Women of the Bible, Mary Demuth breaks down the lives of some of the ... well you read the title.

Each chapter is broken down into sections. First a dramatic retelling of the biblical story. Then an indepth look at the wording used in the biblical account, including clarification on where our modern understanding suffers from the original language. The next three sections are all about how to apply the lessons from each woman to your own life.

This book is a must read for modern Christian women. It brings new light to how we see the women of the Bible and shows how the wrongs committed against them are still being perpetuated even in our churches today.

Author Mary Demuth reads her own book clearly and with the conviction of someone who strongly believes in the message God has given her to share.

Great insights.

I wasn't sure what to expect. With Mary Demuth's expanded narrative of the women I was able to better picture their possible story.
Mary Demuth has a way of bringing one demintional characters to life. Thank you Mary Demuth for bring us this book!

Changed Everything

What an unexpected treasure! I'll be recommending this to everyone who thinks they know their Bibles. I am thankful for the new insights.

This is a wonderful experience.

This book certainly gave me a deeper perspective on the ladies of the Bible. It also gave me a deeper understanding of God and his forgiveness for even the most heinous of sins, and how he gives us so many opportunities to step away from sin.
The lives of Bathsheba, and Mary Magdalene were so intense. It was very hard to listen to these chapters. I am glad I did. Then the chapter on Phoebe was so inspirational. She was some special lady. I highly recommend this book for both women and men.

Love it and have listened to it several times!

I love how each woman's history is broken down, giving the listener new insight and perspective!

Quality

I really appreciated the thorough dive into each lady. Also, the discussion questions at the end were very helpful in forming my own individual thoughts and perspective.

A relief for women seeking closeness with God

Being a biblical woman can feel lonesome at times. “Misunderstood” provided me a closer connection to women in the Bible when I needed it most, and restored my passion for pursuit of God. Thank you Mary!

Great book!

I love the storytelling about various women in the Bible. The narration was good too. Each story 's lesson was practically applied as a comparison to the challenges women face today and how we can overcome them with God's word.
