Hannah's Heartbeat Newsletter June 2011 (There is Truth, Value of Women)
Aborted because they won’t be sons. Abused because they are only daughters or sisters. Abandoned because wives are disposable. Cultures around this world have believed the lies: women are property not people, liabilities to their families and society. Women themselves believe the lies: there is no place for them, they are worthless.
But God’s Word declares the truth: people were created in his image, both male and female. Jesus died so that none would perish. A godly woman’s value is immense– she is worth far more than rubies (Proverbs 31:10). Each letter and story in the June 2011 Hannah’s Heartbeat Newsletter recounts how God, through audio messages undergirded by prayer, is dispelling lies with the truth.
