Celebrated for their courage, vision, hospitality, and spiritual giftedness, it's no wonder women were so important to God's plan revealed in the Old and New Testaments. It wasn't their natural qualities that made these women extraordinary but the power of the one true God whom they worshipped and served.

In Twelve Extraordinary Women, you'll learn more than fascinating information about these women, you'll discover—perhaps for the first time—the unmistakable chronology of God's redemptive work in history through their lives. These women were not ancillary to His plan, they were at the very heart of it. And this book includes their amazing stories.

In recent years, we’ve witnessed a series of calculated, strategic attacks on marriage, gender roles, and the family. And as politicians, educators, entertainers, and social engineers of all kinds seek to reimagine culture apart from biblical values—calling good evil and evil good—it’s children, inside the womb and out, who find themselves in the crosshairs. The barrage of assaults directed at the youngest among us is not accidental, and it’s certainly not discreet. It’s blatant, hostile, and unimaginably destructive.

To call this a war is not hyperbole; it’s reality.

In The War on Children, John MacArthur helps you strategize and arm yourself for the fight coming to your own family and local church. The point is not merely to curse the cultural darkness that presses in on us, but to shine a light—helping you see clearly the issues at hand so you can defend, protect, and joyfully raise your children in the nurture and admonition of the Lord. And even if you’re not raising children of your own now, you still have an indispensable role to play in this war. It’s an ideological conflict with eternity at stake.
