Women in the Bible

With Mother's Day approaching, it’s a good time to explore the women, wives, and mothers of the Bible. We all know Eve and Mary. But who are Rachel, Ruth, Rebecca, Rahab, Judith, or Esther, and what were their roles in salvation history? Father Chris Alar, MIC, explains. Then meet Crystal Nieves, who with her husband took a leap of faith to make God and family the center of their lives.

Watch Fr. Chris Alar, MIC, and the Marian Fathers and Brothers from the National Shrine of The Divine Mercy on our weekly show, "Living Divine Mercy," airing on EWTN every Thursday at 10 pm ET, with an encore presentation on Mondays at 9:00 am ET.  Through teaching segments, Bible and St. Faustina Diary excerpts, as well as real-life examples of people who are living Divine Mercy in their lives, you will learn why Jesus said Divine Mercy is mankind's last hope of salvation!
