The Case of the Extravagant Woman~~A Sermon in Honor of Women (The Call of Christ Book 2)

In an age where women are still searching for dignity and equality, this sermon by United Methodist Bishop Frank L. Robertson, will warm your heart and soul. Based on the familiar Biblical story of "The Woman with the Alabaster Box" in the Gospel of Mark, Chapter 14, Verse 3, Bishop Robertson speaks in clear and concise language of the woman whose love for Jesus was so great that she walked into a dinner party uninvited and annointed Him with a rare, expensive perfume. The guests at the dinner criticized the woman for her act of love and worship but Jesus quieted their protests by praising her for annointing His body for His burial, which He knew would come soon. Bishop Robertson shows that Jesus gave dignity and status to women in a way that they had never known before. These words will reaffirm your Christian faith and give you renewed faith in the role of women in our society today. This sermon was converted from the spoken word to the written word by Bishop Robertson's daughter, Dr. Jane Robertson Westerfield. May these words be a blessing to you and to the women you cherish in your life.
