Women of the Bible: Deborah's Story

by Ann Burton

A lifelong slave, Deborah still dreams of a stranger destined to bring her joy. Then she meets Lappidoth, risking her life to save him. Later, as she recovers in his house, Deborah's dreams all come to pass-so she puts her gift to use. For she has dreamt: "The Lord will use a woman to defeat Sisera." And so will Deborah be known-as a heroine, a prophetess for God's chosen people, and one of the greatest judges of all time.
