The Women of Advent

It’s striking how little the men of the Christmas story speak and how much space is given to the women of this story. So this week we’re going to look at the women in and around the Advent story and the way that God elevates the voices of women surrounding Jesus’s birth. We’ll talk about the strength we can draw from their stories and the way these women may represent biblical types. This is a great episode as we move into Christmas week to prepare your heart in wonder at the wisdom and power of God.
