Catalyzing Conversations on Women and the Church
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!
