In his eagerly anticipated follow-up to the enormously successful Seven Men, New York Times best-selling author Eric Metaxas gives us seven captivating portraits of some of history's greatest women, all of whom changed the course of history by following God's call upon their lives - as women.

Each of these world-changing figures - Joan of Arc, Susanna Wesley, Hannah More, Maria Skobtsova, Corrie ten Boom, Mother Teresa, and Rosa Parks - is an exemplary model of true womanhood. The teenaged Joan of Arc followed God's call and liberated her country, dying a heroic martyr's death. Susanna Wesley had 19 children and gave the world its most significant evangelist and its greatest hymn writer, her sons John and Charles. Corrie ten Boom, arrested for hiding Dutch Jews from the Nazis, survived the horrors of a concentration camp to astonish the world by forgiving her tormentors. And Rosa Parks' deep sense of justice and unshakeable dignity and faith helped launch the 20th-century's greatest social movement.

Writing in his trademark conversational and engaging style, Eric Metaxas reveals how the other extraordinary women in this book achieved their greatness, inspiring listeners to live lives shaped by the truth of the Gospel.

The most inspirational book I have ever read. I couldn't stop listening. I found myself sharing these stories to everyone around me. this book is beautiful proof that when we are obedient to God in the little things, he is able to accomplish the impossible through us. What I loved the most is that religion isn't what powered these women, but the loving call of Jesus.

Amazing

I love Eric Metaxas and again he didn't disappoint. The stories of these amazing women is nothing short of remarkable. Metaxas points out that what made these women great was not because they could do something as good as a man, but rather they did things that only women could do...and it changed the world.

Great book!

Women who made a difference

This book was interesting and inspiring. I enjoyed getting to know more about the wonderful women who were featured. For the purpose of this book the women's biographies that were shared were much more condensed and high level than a book dedicated to each one. I was however still able to feel like I got insight into how these ladies thought and part of the reason why which is what I love about biographies.

The reason I knocked off a star was because of the reading performance. It was just odd! The reader's "s" sound was ALWAYS soft which made "Jesus" sound weird. He also made his voice high pitched whenever he read an excerpt from a letter.... Regardless if it was a woman or man. I will say that he made the sounds of the many non-English words of towns and names sound good and the ones that were English were accurate as far as aI remember. Overall the performance was done well but something about the tone of the reader was odd and slightly irritating.

I will recommend this book to some of my friends but I will give print copies instead of an Audible.

Great story with an odd performance.
