About this episode

Jon and Matthew discuss the role of female leaders in the Old Testament and challenge the notion of male-centric leadership in the Bible.

Although the Bible was written in a male-dominated culture and typically highlights the leadership of men, the Old Testament includes some incredible female leaders. Jon and Matthew discuss how this subverts the idea that God's design is for male-centric leadership.
