What is biblical womanhood, really? In this raw, reflective, and challenging episode, we dive headfirst into the complexities, callings, and contradictions surrounding womanhood in the Church. From childlessness and calling to careers and compassion, this conversation is for every woman who’s ever felt unseen, misunderstood, or misrepresented.
Whether you're single, married, a mother, or not—a therapist, a missionary, or somewhere in between—this episode reminds us that our purpose is not a checklist of accomplishments or roles. It’s simply this: to glorify God.
In This Episode, We Talk About:
- 💼 Calling vs. Career: Why your purpose isn’t your job—and what glorifying God looks like outside of professional titles.
- 👶 "What if you’re childless?": Navigating the painful and often judgmental question of purpose when you don’t have children.
- 🧠 Experience vs. Knowledge: Can you teach about marriage or parenting if you’re single or childless? What about counseling if you’re not a parent?
- 🚺 Gender Bias in the Church: Why female voices are often dismissed where male voices are respected—and how to start shifting that.
- 📚 Scripture and Balance: The wisdom of Proverbs, the weight of God’s creation, and how balance and unity are central to womanhood.
- 🤝 Unity Among Women: Homeschool vs. public school. Stay-at-home vs. working moms. We get real about division in the Church and how compassion changes the conversation.
- 🌍 From Tanzania to Teen Ministry: How years of working with children—biological or not—can still qualify you to speak into the lives of families.
- 🙏 The Power of Women’s Prayers: A biblical reminder that our prayers matter—to our families, our husbands, and the Kingdom.
Scriptures Mentioned:
- Proverbs 11:1 – “A false balance is an abomination to the Lord, but a just weight is His delight.”
- Isaiah 40:12 – A beautiful reminder of the divine balance in creation.
- Psalm 133:1 – “Behold, how good and pleasant it is when brothers dwell in unity!”
Key Quote:
“Our children and our marriages can be a product of glorifying God, but they should never replace Him as the purpose of our lives.”
