WaterBrook Press Bad Girls of the Bible: And What We Can Learn From Them, DVD Edition
Women everywhere marvel at those "good girls" in Scripture - Sarah, Mary, Esther - but on most days, that's not who they see when they look in the mirror. Most women (if they're honest) see the selfishness of Sapphira or the deception of Delilah. They catch a glimpse of Jezebel's take-change pride or Eve's disastrous disobedience. Like Bathsheba, Herodias, and the rest, today's modern woman is surrounded by temptations, exhausted by the demands of daily living, and burdened by her own desires.
So what's a good girl to do? Learn from their lives, says beloved humor writer Liz Curtis Higgs, and by God's grace, choose a better path. In Bad Girls of the Bible, Higgs offers a unique and clear-sighted approach to understanding those "other women" in Scripture, combining a contemporary retelling of their stories with a solid, verse-by-verse study of their mistakes and what lessons women today can learn from them.

The DVD does not follow the book nor does it lend itself to a weekly use with each lesson. Curtis Higgs recommends showing it at the beginning of a study, which is what my study group did. We used our first session for the DVD (which is about 1 1/4 hours long) and met to discuss a single chapter each of the remaining weeks. It's a fun video and provides lots of enthusiasm for the remaining study.

answer 2
Yes. It has a workbook that coincides with the book. The DVD is an overview and also a great introduction to the author.

No. You have to review the entire video and write down when the subjects change. You will note that the bulk of the information is really about Adam and Eve, and the remainder of the women are discussed lightly. I managed to present all the snippets to my class, but it took an inordinate amount of time to get the video to the right place and wondered if we may have been better without it. Also, the order of the subjects is different than the book and study guide.

Question
Does it follow the book in the modern version and Biblical account of each character?
Is it like her telling the story like it is in the book? Or are some parts left out?
