Free Church women in the United States DID lead in ministry. This is the focus on Part 3 of Della Olson's book, "A Woman of Her Times - Stories of women who dared to place obedience to the commands of Christ above submission to the traditions of men," with a forward by Ruth Kantzer. Dr. Joy Fleming reads from this book by the First Lady of the Free Church who was her friend and neighbor.

Della and her husband, Dr. Arnold T. Olson, President of the EFCA from 1951 to 1976 personally encouraged women to pursue public ministry.

 The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn’t curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader? We invite you to get from Amazon the four books by Bruce C. E. Fleming in The Eden Book Series (Tru316.com/trubooks). Would you like to support the work of the Tru316 Foundation?
