Bible, Women & Bathrobes Episode 19
Women of the Ark, Part 1
Summary
Women in the biblical account of Noah's flood played crucial roles in preparing for the coming storm. Tamara Anderson, Bonnie Randall, and Amy Johnson talk about the women of the ark from Genesis 6. They emphasize the importance of prioritizing God in family and marriage, and building refuges of love and obedience to God's ways. They discussed the challenges of teaching children to stay true to God in a world filled with evil and violence, and offered practical insights and examples from Biblical accounts to illustrate their points. The speakers emphasized the need for women to stand true to God in a day of corruption and wickedness, just like Mrs. Noah and other faithful women of the past.
Main Takeaways
· From Tamara, Regarding the Women of the Ark, “they were women of faith and courage, despite everything that was going on around them. And they, they probably had to be very conscious in their choice to follow God when wickedness was just so rampant.”
· From Amy, “I never know when the rain is going to start in my life. I never know when the storms are just going to start flooding in every aspect of my life, and so what am I doing to prepare an ark that will protect me, and keep me doing it his way, even though the rain is threatening to destroy me?”
· From Bonnie, “My prayer for all of you ladies today is that you will know how to build at your own arks, and how to build that place of refuge in your home and that your homes will become a place of safety. They will be a safe haven where all who enter feel the love of Christ and they feel I can breathe here. I can be here. I can be me, I can find God in this place. And I know that as we study the Scriptures, we'll know the path ahead.”
