She is Called

I'd like to follow the many CoC bloggers who have posted this podcast about the experience of women in the Churches of Christ (my faith tradition and the host denomination of my university).

For context to "outsiders," in the Churches of Christ women are prohibited from formal teaching (e.g., preaching) and leadership roles (e.g., elders). While any given Church of Christ varies in how restrictive they are in regards to gender inclusivity, the norm is patriarchal and male-dominated.

The podcast, entitled She is Called, is hosted by ACU Bible professor Dr. Stephen Johnson who poignantly guides us through the stories and heartache of four young women, each raised in the Churches of Christ, who have been called to the ministry.
