We're doing a series of collective worships in school on the theme of courage; and I've been searching around the bible for stories of courageous women. It struck me that as well as anger and angst there's some courage shown by the two women who came before King Solomon disputing which one of them was the true mother of the baby boy one of them clung onto. Also that this story is very, very, seldom told in that way. The story of Bertha and Brenda and the baby they both wanted: reaching towards a bereaved mother’s point of view of 1 Kings 3.16-28. A talk for the end of Baby Loss Awareness Week (Collective Worship, Austwick School, 18 October).
