If you’ve ever felt unseen or unimportant and struggled to see how you could make a lasting impact for God’s kingdom, this is the plan for you! We know the significance of famous women in the Bible, such as Esther, Eve, and Ruth. But what about the unsung and even unnamed women in the Bible? In Vol 2 of this plan, discover the lasting impact of ten more changemakers like Abigail, Zipporah, and one who's referred to only as "The Wise Woman." Their stories remind and encourage us that God sees, values, and has a divine purpose for his daughters.

The Bible is a compilation of 66 books. Each book has an overarching theme. Multiple stories and texts in each book point to an attribute of God.

Ultimately, each theme will enable us to understand Jesus and why He came.
