Let's Talk: Lies Women Believe

On this episode of Let's Talk, Melissa Kruger, Jackie Hill Perry, and Jasmine Holmes unpack why we find certain lies compelling as well as why we shouldn't believe them.
Jasmine points out that a way to combat lies is to follow the example of Mary, sister of Lazarus, by "choosing the better portion," to sit at the feet of Jesus (Luke 10:38-42). We do that by reading and believing his Word.

The entire female Christian community needs more discussions like this. Straight talk, honest and insightful 👏🏾🙌🏾

Jackie hit on a really good point about the church looking at single people, whether straight or gay, as somehow dangerous and a hazard to the body of Christ. As if being married magically, makes a person less dangerous and less tempted than those who are single. Singleness often times is looked at like a plague and most married people in the church will outwardly praise the single person while also looking at them closer and with distrust.

This was so good! I'm definitely saving it.

I have especially enjoyed the bit about women and theology. Right on point!

[@s.a3099]

Same. I am actually way more hungry for theology than my husband, and I feel like I get vibes that that’s not appropriate...sorry but I’m not going to wait for my husband to dig deep with God. I love and respect my husband, and I do submit to him. But God is more important, and I can’t know Him better without digging deep into theology.

[@shulifu2020]

Preach it sister! God created Eve to be Adam's helpmeet, not his pupil! women are given the faculty of learning by our Creator too! The desire to learn theology can help us grow close to God and honor our husband.

So important to do work unto the Lord. Are we trying to project perfection? Importance? Special? This resonates so much to those who want it to. Check your heart!

[@RobinMotley.BlessedOldBird]

JMJ; bring in singles, older women, widows to join in the conversation. Have you ever thought about doing live, response interactive podcasts?

[@emoribrown7330]

I love call the midwifes

[@moriahmatters4113]

Jackie I don’t know if you were intentional in making me laugh! “Mmm shoulda had a floppy disk” but ladies this was awesome!

[@paulaarias2617]

How or what can I do to study the theology of God? I've been wanting to do this for a long time but I somehow talk myself out of it thinking I'm not smart enough. I honestly don't know how to even begin.

That comment about reading too many books.... ☠☠☠

[@mvscrubb2442]

"You read too many books...your husband can't mold you" whew!!! My Lord and my God! Fixxit Jesus! Jesus fixxit!
