Is Proverbs 31 inspiring or burdening to women? Is it a passage that's just for women? What do you think when you think about Proverbs 31? Where is the gospel in this passage?

We have on Hebrew scholar, Chad Bird, to discuss Christ in the Old Testament--even in Proverbs 31. He shares how this church applies not only to women, but to the whole church, and how Christ is wisdom personified.

This episode will stop you in your tracks and point you to freedom. It's one not to be missed. It's one to listen to again, and again, and again.

Due to travel upsets and storms preventing some recording, Gretchen Ronnevik and Katie Koplin are releasing for 1 more week, one of their most popular episodes. We will be back together next week, with your regularly scheduled programming.
