LTWT 034: Godly Femininity

“Every single day, it’s an opportunity for us as women to put on those characteristics of Proverbs 31....being trustworthy, a self-starter, industrious, a good manager, sharp and versatile, believing the Word about yourself, keeping God’s Word burning brightly, compassionate, preparing ahead of time and believing for abundance, that your appearance leaves a godly impression, that your speech and conduct are of high integrity, wise and kind....”

With so much confusion in culture about what femininity means—and with the many contradicting expectations placed on women—have you ever wondered what God’s Word actually says about the qualities of godly women? In this episode Jill Edwards and Sara Shroyer, interviewed by Lauren Schiano, explore Biblical records of women who accomplished great things for God. They unpack some of the characteristics of the virtuous woman from Proverbs 31, and contrast society’s limited expectations with the far more expansive and encouraging standards God set up for women. Truly, God has called His daughters to live powerful, fulfilling, vital lives for Him!
