The Bible gives us story after story about ordinary women, "little people," who, because they dared to trust God, influenced their families, changed their communities, and affected the course of history. They faced the same challenges we face today-poverty, illness, death, war, loneliness, injustice, and difficult relationships and chose to believe God in those circumstances. In these studies we can find encouragement to "imitate their faith" (Hebrews 13:7).
