5 Great reasons to buy from us:
Product DescriptionThe Arabian Gulf?the wealthiest country in the world is located here, as is the world's busiest airport. Not many citizens are Christians. Not much religious conversion is allowed. Yet through migrant women, some of the most powerless people in the great sweep of human labor exchanges today, God's grace is at work.In this book you will find? primary research not available anywhere else, narrated in a highly readable style? globalization, diasporas, and massive culture change? Jesus women?maids, nurses, pastors?experiencing rape, jail, and the opportunity to mentor hundreds? a guide for group Bible study and reflection at the end of each chapterThese Gulf women?s stories, like those in the Bible, teach lessons that apply to us in many countries.ReviewThis book surfaces for us the hidden stories of suffering and deliverance that are being lived out in the Arab world and other centers of mass migration. With deft storytelling, Miriam Adeney and Sadiri Joy Tira paint moving portraits of women abroad struggling to wrest a future out of poverty and misfortune, and finding in the process the gracious hand of God at work in their lives. Seldom do we get stories from what the Latin Americans call "the underside of history"-those submerged voices tossed to and fro by the tidal forces of globalization. The authors do a great service in making us aware of the human plight and also of the sovereign God who goes ahead and accompanies peoples on the move.
