Hello and welcome to the pre-launch episode of Here She Stands, a brand new podcast for Australian Lutheran women!

Welcome to Here She Stands, the podcast where Lutheran women from across Australia come together as a community, sharing stories and testifying to God’s goodness. We do this so that when the tribulations of this world try to push us down, each woman can hold firm to the Word of God and confidently say, “Here I stand, I can do no other.”
