This was a required read for one of my ministry courses. I enjoyed the book but had a hard time focusing on some of the stories. Sometimes I felt like there was a lack of details and then too much detail on some of the women. Most of these women I had never heard of but I did enjoy the fact that for each person there was further reading suggestions.
