The Birth of a Mother

Dr. Sandra Richter visits Park Hill Church and addresses a challenging but important question: "Does the Old Testament dehumanize women?" Speaking with clarity and deep biblical insight, she invites us to reexamine some of the tough passages through the lens of their ancient cultural context. Rather than diminishing women, Dr. Richter shows how these scriptures, when rightly understood, often offered more dignity and protection than commonly perceived. Her message encourages us as believers to engage the Old Testament not with suspicion, but with a deeper curiosity for God’s justice and care woven throughout. It’s a timely reminder that Scripture, even in its difficult parts, is worth wrestling with—and that God’s heart for both women and men remains steadfast and good.
