If you have ever had questions about some of the sticky Biblical passages related to women and the church, such as the teachings on women and head coverings, or a women exercising authority, then today's episode is for you! Dr. Cynthia Hester has a Doctor of Ministry from Dallas Theological Seminary and did her dissertation on women in the church - so today she is our resident pro!

Of course we can't cover all the things in one episode, but I do love how Cynthia offers us a broad theology on women that will hopefully show you your vital place in the body of Christ. We also do a deeper dive into I Corinthians 7 and 1 Timothy 2.

We are glad you are here! Join us!

For those of us struggling with our body image, or aging, or a mother to girls, or if you are a teenager...hello, all women in American...I have a very special podcast episode just for you!

Amanda says something at the end of the podcast that really stood out to me! She said, "We don't need a crutch, we need a cornerstone." We don't need a new diet, or botox, or a better filter, or lotion, or surgery. You are completely complete in who God created you to be.

So go on out and shine forth your light, and do it with in the frailty of your own body. After all, His power shines brightest in our weakness.

At 21 weeks of pregnancy, Kathleen's life was turned upside down when she was diagnosed with Preterm Premature Rupture of Membranes and her water broke. After 5 weeks on bedrest in the Hospital she gave birth. As you can imagine, Kathleen's baby girl spent months in the NICU as Kathleen and her husband fervently prayed over their baby and loved her as best as they could.

Kathleen's story is not a simple story, and honestly, it is still developing. But it is a story of honest faith, raw vulnerability and deepening trust in God.

One thing I have treasured most in my life is the dear women who have discipled and mentored me. At time they have literally changed the trajectory of my life! Titus 2 speaks of this kind of discipleship, and from experience I can tell you it's impact is powerful! Today I have another mentorship moment. This is just a 30 minute mentorship moment, but I hope it is also an encouragement to seek out discipleship relationships, but from women older than you and given to those younger than you.
