Description: Did you know that women of the Bible were warriors, prophets and military leaders? Were you aware that God had a female partner in the creation of the world? Did you know that Jesus’ ministry was funded by women? Have you heard about the women who gave birth to demi-gods? What about the crazy law that required women to marry their rapists?  

Women’s stories have been buried in the Bible for centuries. Though they may have been lost, they are not erased. 

In this free resource, I’ll introduce you to 15 things you never knew about women of the Bible and lots of other women who are unhiding their stories as well. Taking a creative look at groundbreaking biblical scholarship, we’ll explore why women’s stories were lost and how they’re being found again. 

There are still wild places in this world, even in the pages of the Bible. When we venture out into the Bible’s uncharted regions, beyond those selected scriptures that have often been used to tame the feminine spirit, we meet the wild and holy women of the Bible who were free, faithful, and fearless.  

Blending the brightest in biblical scholarship with her vast experiences, Rev. Sherry Cothran leads us into healing encounters with the Bible’s lost stories of women who were warriors, prophets, harlots, and healers. The book and 10 original songs call us to live free, faithful, and fearless lives, find new narratives from old stories and awaken to the image of a loving  God within

Sherry Cothran is a rare combination: a first rate singer/songwriter, a trained theologian, dynamic performer and pastor. She is an artistic/spriitual gift.

Reviews and Interviews for Wild and Holy

It is isn’t often that I speak so boldly about what someone else should do with their time, but in the case of Sherry Cothran’s Book, Wild and Holy Women of the Bible, it feels less like an injunction and more like an emphatic, “this is what your soul has been waiting for” truth. Please read this book!

Rev. Sarah Ciavarri

Author, "Finding Our Way to Truth", Fortress Press

Sherry Cothran guides us down a path of greater illumination. This is her true gift. This is a powerful vindication of the reality of women’s experience and light for men who need to be liberated from the darkness of patriarchy. 

Rev. Dr. Matthew W. Charlton

Prof. of Religion, Belmont University

From the warrior and prophet Deborah to the nameless daughter who became the victim to her father’s heedless vow, Cothran lifts up voices that call to women today to rise up and ‘live our wild, holy and precious lives.’

Dr. Johanna W. H. van Wijk-Bos

Prof. of Old Testament Emerita, Author, Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary

Cothran revisits the women of the Old Testament with the intellectual skill of a first rate biblical scholar, and with the artistic and poetic insights of an outstanding songwriter. We are not merely taught these stories, our lives are rescripted by them.

“Tending Angels” is a collection of inspiring essays about finding hope in broken places, healing in heartbreak and purpose and meaning as the gifts of love. Sherry Cothran shares her experiences from nearly a decade as the senior pastor of one of those kinds of churches Pope Francis has called “a triage hospital on the frontlines of the world’s pain.” Cothran takes us to the the “frontlines of heaven and earth” where she often felt she might be “tending angels unaware.” Caring for some of Music City’s most rejected, traumatized and abandoned people who bore the labels of homeless, refugee, immigrant and the poor, Cothran inspires readers to see the sacred face of homelessness, seek the soul’s journey and embrace the wounded healer within.
