In our last dive into the histories of prominent women throughout the Church, Sarah leads the discussion today with a glimpse into the Reformation.
•Argula, the first woman to apply Luther’s doctrine of priesthood of all believers to women, and also the first female lobbyist of the Reformation.
•Katharina, who wrote a defense for speaking out against men in ecclesial power. (Significantly, also wrote a preface for one of Calvin’s sermons.)
•Marie Dentiere, who wrote & published a formal defense for women being allowed to authoritatively teach to other women, which most of the Reformers were against.
Listen to how these women’s arguments laid the foundation for much of what we enjoy today in modern-day Christianity! As always, thank you so much for listening and like or leave a review of what you think!
