Today is still much like yesterday, full of misconceptions about women and their place or roles in the church and society. There is so much inequality in life for women especially in leadership roles in the business world and pulpits. I am a woman that believes in breaking barriers and is not accustomed to living by man’s rules but by God’s rules. In Portraits I am introducing women of the Old and New Testament comparing my life trials and adversities to women of the Old and New Testament. There is a prayer after each persona about the particular adversity for all who have been through a similar situation. There is a section called “It Is So” throughout the book on random topics that God placed on my mind to enlighten the readers. SIT BACK, RELAX, AND ENJOY THE RIDE.
