538: Spring Bible Study: Deborah the Nursemaid- Serving Faithfully Throughout Our Lives

SPRING BIBLE STUDY: WOMEN OF THE OLD TESTAMENT: Deborah, Rebekah’s Nurse Maid

In this episode, Rachael explores the life of Deborah, but it’s probably not the Deborah you remember from Scripture. Deborah was Rebekah’s nursemaid, and she played a significant role in Jacob and Esau's life. Deborah’s story reminds us that even in the sometimes overlooked tasks of the day to day, God sees us and values our impact.

537: Spring Bible Study: Rebekah- The Mom Who Manipulated

SPRING BIBLE STUDY: WOMEN OF THE OLD TESTAMENT: Rebekah

Rebecca's story in the Old Testament starts off with good intentions, but we learn how she soon gets off track. She falls into deception and manipulation and later has to deal with the consequences. So many of us can see ourselves in her story, but we can be thankful for a God who remains faithful throughout it all.
