For years, women's ministry has been a staple of church life, but do we still need it? Kaitlyn welcomes Bible teacher and bestselling author Beth Moore to talk about the good, the bad, and the occasionally ridiculous history of women's ministry. They discuss everything from tea parties and Bible studies to the ways churches have limited women's roles and overlooked their gifts. Beth reflects on her decades of ministry, why she's come to embrace her calling to women, and what younger generations might be missing when they dismiss the traditions of the past. Plus, why Beth thinks some Christians need to lighten up and get a hobby.
