You are seen, heard, known, and namedNo matter your season of life as a woman, you long to be loved and appreciated. But perhaps most days you're left feeling unseen, unheard, or unknown. Though centuries apart from your life today, the women who knew Jesus faced similar fears and insecurities. Their names aren't etched onto the pages of Scripture, but they are etched into the heart of God. In this book, Paige Allen invites you to take a second look at the life-changing encounters of seven unnamed women who came face-to-face with Jesus in the Bible. Weaving personal stories with timeless biblical truths, Paige shows how just one encounter with the love of Jesus empowers you to: ● live with an unshakable sense of security and identity● stand confident in the chaos or the silence● trust His goodness whether your hands are empty or full● pursue Him boldly, even in the face of censureDaughter, you are seen, known, and named by the Creator who breathed the stars into existence--even on the days you feel invisible. This is your invitation to let go of shame and discover the courage, grace, and compassion to live seen and make Him known.

While most of us are familiar with Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the fulfillment of God's promises to these patriarchs could never have happened without the matriarchs--Sarah, Rebekah, Leah, and Rachel. These women remained brave as they traversed unknown lands, hopeful as they petitioned God for children, and so very human as they schemed and despaired that they might not fulfill their purposes.In Matriarchs, Paige Allen pairs personal stories of audacious faith, simple obedience, and the occasional royal screw-up with what she has learned from the mothers of our faith about how to birth a promise of God on earth. These matriarchs speak to the simple truth that women, both then and now, play a vital role in God's story and are invited to embrace His promises, wait well, lean into pain, nurture their dreams, and eventually release them into the world.
