  • Throughout history, women have often been relegated to the sidelines, subjugated by patriarchy, or prevented from exercising their God-given gifts at all. But women foster human flourishing in an array of spaces—as authors, pastors, and scholars. As friends, parents, and conversation partners. And much, much more. This half of the church has a unique voice that the whole church needs to hear.
