Are You a Woman of Prayer?

Do you struggle with prayer? Do you worry that you’re doing it wrong? Prayer should be the most natural thing in the world, but it’s not. We make it far more complicated than it needs to be, primarily because we don’t understand the character of God and how He works.

In Women of Prayer you get to know God in a more personal manner as you delve into the lives of Bible women who walked and talked with Him. Through their interactions with God, you’ll discover who He is and what it is He wants for you.

Focusing on the stories of ten Bible women with an additional look at ten more women, author Sharon Wilharm shows you how to get past a superficial acquaintance with God and develop a deeper relationship with him.

What Women Are Saying About Women of Prayer

This book /study is superb. Looking forward to sharing this on a larger scale w my church ladies. Having the leader manual in the back of the book is a game changer. All in one with no extra charge? Yes and thank you!!

Sharon Wilharm has a heart for women to know God more. In Women of Prayer, she takes us on a fascinating journey into the lives of women in Scripture to help us dig deeper and seek biblical truth applicable to our own lives. The format flows so well, and you’ll love the leader’s guide in the back! I highly recommend this study for women seeking fresh revelation, a richer prayer life, and to know God more.

I’m very much enjoying “Women of Prayer.” Mrs. Wilharm’s style is very readable, but more importantly, refreshingly authentic. Reading the daily entries is more like sitting down to coffee with a good friend than sitting in a classroom.
The review questions that follow the daily readings are designed as springboards for deeper study and not necessarily homework. I am a “rabbit chaser” in Scripture, and I find the review questions both thought-provoking and meaningful.

This delightful book is part Bible study, part prayer guide, and part devotional tool! Sharon does a great job of introducing women of the Bible and helping us understand the context of their stories. I love the way she makes their stories relatable to our modern-day lives and then challenges us to connect with God in prayer through the context of these stories. This book is a true gem! I’ll be using it to study the Bible and draw near to God in prayer for years to come!

Having read multiple books about Bible women, and having read the Bible through many times (including listening through, from cover-to-cover, again last month), I thought I KNEW the Bible women. But Sharon Wilharm surprised me in her new book, “Women of Prayer: Getting to Know God Through the Prayers of Bible Women.” Not only well written and inspirational, she unearthed stories of women I had never deeply considered–and made comparisons I had never even contemplated. A wonderful book for personal or group study! Bravo!
