Look with fresh eyes toward the Bible stories you have heard all your life. Contemplate, ponder, and glory at Jesus’ final days on earth, his heart-wrenching death, and marvelous resurrection alongside relatable women, chosen by God to play extraordinary roles in the fulfillment of Scripture throughout Lent, Easter and Pentecost.  

Women Who Followed Jesus honors ordinary women who were integral to declaring Christ as Messiah, serving as early church believers, and announcing Jesus as the fulfillment of Scripture. From Lent to Easter to Pentecost, these forty fresh and thought-provoking Bible-based devotions draw readers closer to the risen Savior while reminding individuals that God has a purpose for each of our lives. The struggles and joys of Mary, Mary Magdalene, Joanna, and Salome, connect with everyday readers on topics such as patience, hope, faith, trust, persistence, sacrifice, grace, and love, addressing women’s needs that cross generations and centuries. 

Women of all race and background are at the heart of the first Christian church: Mary (Jesus’ blessed mother), Mary Magdalene (prostitute turned believer), Joanna (witness to Jesus’ resurrection), and Salome (present at the crucifixion).  

The story of Jesus unfolds in forty devotions narrated by women mentioned in Scripture. When these women unite, unselfish love and thanksgiving lead them to glorify God and praise Him for his remarkable plan of salvation. Each reading begins with a passage of Scripture. Then, grounded in the biblical account, readers are challenged to imagine each woman’s journey toward living with a risen Jesus.  

Poignant questions invite daily meditation and personal reflection. This biblical and research-based journey of the miraculous life, death, and resurrection of Jesus encourages readers to worship, grow, and submit to God’s plans, offering hope to women no matter what stage of life they’re in. The involvement of women in the work of Christ should be as commonly known as the story of his twelve disciples. Women Who Followed Jesus recognizes and honors the ordinary women God chose for his extraordinary purpose. Each of the daily entries offers greater appreciation of these important female voices. 

This spring season, contemplate, ponder, and learn by using this as your Bible study and listen as women of the Bible glorify God’s Divine Son, Jesus the Risen King.

In this beautiful 40-day devotional, Mackall brings us close to the cross, revealing Jesus through the eyes of women who followed Him during His earthly ministry. Each day’s reading is moving and meaningful. Highly recommended.
