This book is a collection of true accounts of ordinary women's lives. Some were forgotten in obscurity; some were forced into slavery, others into royalty. They were neglected, mistreated and oppressed, yet, their impact on our history is so immense, it continues to echo in the lives of their children's children

The stories in this book will pull you down into the depth of suffering, yet, all the women in these stories would rise above their pain--transcending the darkness around them. These fragile giants of faith sought after God's light in the midst of the deepest darkness, and in the end, they all found its source. As you follow along their journeys, you will discover the source of these women's strength, hope, and timeless wisdom. By doing so, you will develop a new heavenly perspective for your own life.

"Jesus reigns victorious and he lives within us; therefore, it is our destiny to finish this obstacle course, our life's journey, not to yield in determination or weaken in vigor but to remain RELENTLESS."
