Useful audio resource

If you’ve read Women of the Word and think you might want a refresher, this podcast is exactly what you’re looking for. Jen Wilkin steps through the main ideas from her influential book in short episodes using a conversation/interview format. She’s also included some newer insights based on over a decade of feedback and personal experience. It’s an added blessing to hear Jen present her ideas on how to lead a group of women to study the Bible in her gentle Texas drawl.

Very helpful starting guide for studying the Bible

Jen offers insight into many of our common barriers and unhelpful approaches we may have had to Scripture in the past and then explains a very helpful approach to studying the Bible to grow us in godliness individually and in community. Highly recommended.
