'We have not just one but two strong women in this story and I love how we see them work together as mother and daughter,' said Bream.īoth Moses and Miriam were critical in the exodus of the Israelites from Egypt to the Promised Land, none of which would have been possible without Jochebed's bravery to float her son down the river. Some of these are really small stories where we don't even have the name of the woman involved but maybe there was a miracle or they really saw God work in their lives when they were desperate and needed Him to show up.'Īmong her favorites is the story of Jochebed and Miriam, the mother and sister of Moses. 'And then others, I think, I really try to choose some who resonate with me. 'I think sometimes there are easy obvious ones like Mary, the mother of Jesus, and the Old Testament telling of Esther,' explained Bream. One not-so-easy task was choosing who to include. 'If you think about finances and family and infertility and all of these different things that women faced, they just really translated so we knew that there were still a lot of strong female stories in the Bible that hadn't been told or needed to be elaborated on so we said, 'Alright, let's plunge into these mother-daughter relationships.'' People isolated, they were fearful, so many of them were out of their churches and kind of at home and I think it was one of those books that was just full of encouragement and inspiration.' 'I think that there was a real hunger and thirst, especially during the pandemic which was when the first book was written,' Bream told CBN News.
