By Janet Creps

If you have ever experienced deep disappointments or felt at the brink of despair you are not alone. Even in Biblical times, you find stories of people in the Scriptures who faced insurmountable challenges.Stubborn Hope: Fresh Inspiration from Ancient Women, offers a look into the lives of women in the Bible who in the midst of their suffering, persistent prayers, and sometimes confusion, who all shared one thing in common: They encountered God's stubborn hope, God, Who never gives up on us even when we give up on ourselves. These represent ordinary women who encountered God's grace and power, women who not only were transformed by hope, but also offered it to others. Along with the narratives of these women, the author shares her own personal journey on a search for hope after a season of disappointments in her own life. These stories uncover how the unique power hope works to fill every doubt, challenge, and place of despair. We can learn a wealth of insight in the lives from remarkable women like Ruth, Sarah, Anna, Lydia and even nameless women who Jesus touched, who found healing, purpose, and their destiny in God's Kingdom. This book offers powerful opportunity not only to step back in time and walk into their lives through their experiences, but also to apply the truth of Jesus love for us, who is ever present to bring us out of despair into the joy of his presence.
