Episode 21 - Women and The Exodus: A Group Discussion

EPISODE SUMMARY

In this episode, I discuss the women of the Exodus with two of my brilliant colleagues, Dr. Karen Winslow and Dr. Sara Koenig.

EPISODE NOTES

This week's episode is different from my usual ones. 

Instead of just me discussing the subject, I am instead turning it into a group discussion with two brilliant friends and colleagues, Dr. Karen Winslow, professor of Old Testament at Azusa Pacific University and Azusa and Dr. Sara Koenig, professor of Old Testament at Seattle Pacific University and Seattle Pacific Seminary.

And today's subject is just as brilliant as my guests! We will be discussing the amazing women of the Exodus, the women in the New Testament, and their impact on the stories we know.

We will also be talking about other tales from the Bible that subvert the patriarchal culture the biblical material arose from, from the story of Tamar to the famous tale of Bath-Sheba.

So, if you want to learn more about the women of the Bible, their stories, and their influence, tune in now!
