Women of the Faith: Maria Fearing

In this week’s episode, Karen Ellis is going to share the story of an incredible woman named Maria Fearing. Maria’s story will inspire you to set aside excuses and serve the Lord with gladness. We pray that this episode challenges you to use whatever God’s given you to build his kingdom. In our Women of the Faith series, we are talking about women from church history who will encourage us to trust our God who does not change. 

K.A. Ellis is the Director of the Edmiston Center for the Study of the Bible and Ethnicity in Atlanta, Georgia. She's passionate about theology, human rights, and global religious freedom. Mrs. Ellis is the Cannada Fellow for World Christianity at Reformed Theological Seminary. She holds a Master of Art in Religion (MAR Theological) from Westminster Theological Seminary, a Master of Fine Art (MFA) from the Yale School of Drama, and is a Ph.D. candidate in World Christianity and Ethics at the Oxford Center for Mission Studies in England.
