Episode description
If you think of Bathsheba’s story, it’s so twisted, yet God brought good from it for her.
In all my years of hearing this story, I’ve only ever heard Bathsheba painted in a bad light as a seductress. Let’s break down Scripture to see what God really says about her, and not add our own cultural traditions to wrongfully judge this woman.
This study is so powerful for today in the church. If you have your own crimes against you and were judged wrongfully, you are not alone.
God sees you, and He loves you. I hope this story also encourages your heart to have compassion on so many have faced deep hurts.
Let’s treat women differently, how God sees them. 🫶🏼💕
