Ladies Love Theology Too: Empowering Women in Faith and Doctrine with Dr. Natalie Brand

Listen Later

In this episode of Bookish Talks with Lia, I’m joined by Dr. Natalie Brand, theologian, Bible teacher, and author of The Scuttlebutt Letters. Together, we explore why theology is crucial for every Christian woman, how understanding doctrine strengthens our faith, and how Natalie makes theology accessible, especially for women who feel intimidated by it.


Episode Highlights:

  • Dr. Natalie Brand's Journey: From her personal life in the UK to how her passion for theology grew and led her to write empowering books for women.
  • Why Theology for Women?: The importance of theology for every believer and how Natalie encourages women to engage deeply with doctrine.
  • Overcoming Intimidation: Practical advice on overcoming the fear of studying theology and diving into theological discussions.
  • Top 3 Christian Books: Natalie’s top three books that have shaped her theology and how readers can break out of routine Scripture reading.
  • The Scuttlebutt Letters: A discussion on Natalie’s latest book, which creatively explores the power of the tongue using biblical wisdom and satire.
