About this episode

This episode explores the role of women in the church through the story of the woman at the well in the Gospel of John.

The woman at the well is infamous for being the person that Jesus chose to approach upon His arrival in Samaria despite her bad reputation. As we read in this passage, she was implemental in the Gospel being spread to her town. In fact, she is the first major evangelist ever recorded. However, this leads to the question “Are women allowed to teach and serve in the church?” In today’s episode we explore through the Bible what God says a woman’s role is to be. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DONATE: https://evidence4faith.org/give/ WEBSITE: https://evidence4faith.org/ NEWSLETTER: http://eepurl.com/hpazV5 BOOKINGS: https://evidence4faith.org/bookings/ CONTACT: Evidence 4 Faith, 349 Knights Ave Kewaskum WI 53040 , info@evidence4faith.org My goal is that their hearts, having been knit together in love, may be encouraged, and that they may have all the riches that assurance brings in their understanding of the knowledge of the mystery of God, namely, Christ, in whom are hidden all the treasures of wisdom and knowledge. - Colossians 2:2-3 CREDITS: Developed & Hosted by Michael Lane.
