HER-STORY:
366 devotions from 21 centuries of the
Christian Church
By Diana Lynn Severance
Christian Focus. 409 pages. £17.99
ISBN 978 1 781 917 503

This is a daily devotional of astonishing scope. What you have is 366 bite-size biographical sketches of 366 Christian women. Collectively this book gives an overview of church history from NT times to the present day, through the eyes and stories of female believers.

It is a staggering accomplishment and would make the kind of gift one would return to again and again for reference and pleasure. If you like dipping into books, this one is well worth a dip.
