Empowered To Lead

An interview with Julie Zine Coleman, author of the award-winning book, On Purpose: Understanding God's Freedom for Women Through Scripture. Julie shares how her commitment to living out the truth of Scripture has transformed her from a head-covering, obedient wife to an impactful preacher living fully into her purpose and calling.

In a culture where women were considered inferior to men, treated as property, and excluded from theological education, Jesus defied cultural norms, elevating and advocating for women. Jesus was a man way ahead of his time. He may have been the very first feminist. 

Many Christians have been led to believe that God only wants men to lead and that women are destined to play a secondary role. But the Bible tells a different story! Despite the devastating conditions of ancient patriarchy, God still chose and used women in significant ways to accomplish His purposes. In this episode, we explore the stories of 3 mold-breaking women who heard God's call and dared to step up and lead in a man's world.  

Understanding who God created us to be as women can make a difference in how we live every minute of our lives! In this episode, we will dive into the opening pages of Scripture to examine God’s glorious vision for women (and men) and how we were designed to flourish in relationships of mutuality. You might be surprised that God's vision for women may be grander and more significant than you've been told!
