On today's episode we have a fun girlfriend chat with singer/songwriter, Britt Savage. We talk about everything from The Golden Bachelor, escapism, and how we can all combat the feeling of hopelessness by doing small things to make the world a better place.

Then, we have a wonderful conversation with biblical scholar and author/blogger, Marg Mowczko. She helps us break down the difference between egalitarianism and complementarianism, why 1 Timothy 2:12 doesn't mean women can't be in ministry, how women's roles have been diminished in some biblical translations and which translation she would recommend right now for us to use. It's a super informative conversation so don't miss it!
