Description
Rediscover these characters as spirited, wise women of passion and compassion. Tap into long-serving, New Zealand, Methodist lay preacher Rosalie Sugrue's creative imagination as she tells the stories of 35 Bible women from their point of view. Worship leaders and preachers, these stories and dialogues are perfect for you to share during the sermon or reflection time in your next service, and when these women appear in your lectionary scripture readings. This updated and expanded edition also includes reflections on other noted women with Bible connections; Argula von Grumbach, Lenna Button, Susanna Wesley and Ann Turner. And there are many prayers, lists and resources with a female focus to explore in pairs, groups or as individuals. Click the Look Inside link on the left to see samples of these stories. Match up Sophia and Daughters Revisited with Rosalie's other practical resource books - Lay Preaching Basics, Ten Plays and Theme Scheme - which are also available from Amazon in print and for Kindle. "Rosalie Sugrue's imagination, insight and teaching skills enliven this material. If you are looking for stories, prayers and liturgies to introduce or lead worship, focused on the history of women in the Bible, Sophia & Daughters has strong feminist imagery and reference. Here is a sequence of neglected and fascinating records of Biblical women extended into dramatic stories. At the same time, the worship resources are firmly set in a Southern hemisphere context which is user-friendly and address the church year as well as special occasion services. The format will stimulate participation, provide a sense of drama or simply create space for meditative prayer. Use this book and see!" Shirley Erena Murray, hymn writer About the AuthorRosalie Reynolds Sugrue is a fifth generation West Coaster. Both her parents being fourth generation Coasters whose forebears came seeking gold. Rosalie's great grandfather, James Reynolds, was a local preacher from Cornwall who preached to miners on the beaches and helped establish the first Methodist church in Hokitika.
