The Alabaster Jar

S1 E10 | Holly Beers | Week In the Life of a Greco-Roman Woman


Listen Later

In first-century Ephesus, life is not easy for women. A young wife meets her daily struggles with equanimity and courage. She holds poverty and hunger at bay, fights to keep her child healthy and strong, and navigates the unpredictability of her husband's temperament. But into the midst of her daily fears and worries, a new hope appears: a teaching that challenges her society's most basic assumption. Join Lynn Cohick as she explores with Holly Beers the reality of the Roman world for a woman and what it would have been like to come across the gospel of Jesus Christ.
