description: In a day when many voices are clamoring for attention on women’s issues, we can all benefit from a close look at the way Jesus taught and interacted with women. Modern saints can learn valuable lessons from the examples of stalwarts such as Elisabeth, Mary Magdalene, and Mary, the mother of Jesus. The authors not only examine the Savior’s teachings to and about women but also discuss the women specifically mentioned in the four Gospels and their relationship to the first-century world in which they lived. Some of the characteristics of this time period are quite shocking by modern standards. Sisters at the Well serves as a reminder to all that God sees men and women as individuals equally deserving of his love and attention.
