Women’s discipleship is essential to the health of the Church, but many women have never experienced intentional, life-on-life discipleship. In this episode, John talks with Jess Snyder and Sarah Beth Kreitzer about how women can help one another follow Jesus through every season of life.
They discuss why women’s discipleship involves more than attending a Bible study or staying busy with church activities. Drawing from the example of Jesus, the relationship between Ruth and Naomi, and Paul’s instructions in Titus 2, they present a biblical vision for older women investing in younger women.
They also offer practical encouragement for women who want to find someone to disciple them or begin investing in someone else.
