About this listen

This week on The Church and the Restless, we’re decentering men—spiritually, socially, and scripturally. From Deborah the war-leading prophet, to St. Brigid who founded monasteries, to Margaret Towner—the first woman ordained in the Presbyterian Church, to Rachel Held Evans who made evangelical Twitter sweat—we’re reclaiming the pulpit. Women preaching isn’t some radical new doctrine; it’s been canon since Judges 4. And if patriarchy thinks it wrote the altar call, we’re here to remind them—women have been main characters in the pews, the pulpits, and the plot since day one.
