Marg shares her story of coming to faith as a girl in a male-led church culture and her struggle to find a path to serve God without visible female role models. She and Lynn unpack how marriage books, church teaching, and mistranslated or misunderstood biblical terms like “submission” and diakonos have shaped Christian views of women’s leadership. Drawing on Marg’s Greek studies and research on figures like Phoebe, Lydia, Rahab, Deborah, and Priscilla, they show how the New Testament portrays women as full partners in ministry.
