In this episode Rachel Hughes and Amy Hughes sit down with Dr Paula Gooder to explore the character of Lydia. Dr Paula Gooder is a writer and lecturer in Biblical Studies and her research areas focus on the writings of Paul the Apostle. She brings so much depth of understanding to this wide ranging conversation about following the call of God, what it looks like to wield power and the role of women in the first century and now.

Rachel Hughes reminds us that a great exchange happens at the cross. Sharing stories of women who have experienced freedom in exchange for their shame, Rachel encourages us to partner with Jesus in every area of our lives.
