About this listen

Many of us believe we are unseen.

Memories of being on the outside still haunt us today. We somehow believe we are unique in being overlooked. And yet, the Bible is replete with women just like us—women who felt on the outskirts of life, unseen and voiceless. In their stories, you will not only learn more about the women of the Bible, but you’ll begin to understand that you are both seen and heard.

How about you? Have you ever felt like life has passed you by? When you look back on your pivotal moments, do you feel unseen and overlooked? You are not alone. Not only have others around you experienced the same things, but many women in the Bible have too. We all have asked questions like:

· Why can’t people seem to see and notice me?

· How can I overcome this feeling of rejection?

· What does a “seen” life actually look like in a world of social media and the insta-famous?

This universal feeling is normal, but it doesn’t have to stick to you. Through the raw and real stories of ten women who also felt overlooked, you can unearth new ways to find meaning and joy in a world that ignores you.

The Most Overlooked Women of the Bible will help you find your place in this world, rest in being seen, and empower you to find your unique voice.

Critic reviews

“I highly recommend this gathering of boldly original voices with a predominant tone of wild invention and fearlessness side by side with the intimacy of domestic life in our turbulent American times.”–Joyce Carol Oates, National Book Award winner and author of Zero-Sum: Stories

“Incandescent … perhaps the finest, most courageous, most profoundly moving anthology I’ve read in a decade or two. Here gathered is genius, compassion, courage … an exhilarating gift to readers everywhere.”–Junot Díaz, Pulitzer Prize Winner for The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao

“Pushing the boundaries at every turn, Nothing Sacred gathers twelve stories of virtuoso eclecticism and ingenuity. Its storytellers are wildly different in vision and formal approach, and the tales they tell form a literary crazy quilt that leaves the reader bewildered, dazzled, and wanting to read more. Often dark, sometimes hilarious, always distinctive, this collection is a revelation.”–Bradford Morrow, author of The Prague Sonata and The Forger’s Daughter
