We’re taking a small break this summer to gear up for season six of the Strong Women podcast. During this break, we’ll be re-airing episodes we think you’ll enjoy!

Our world is so confused about what it means to be male or female. Some speak as if men and women are interchangeable, and others as if we’re totally different species. But God’s creation of men and women is bigger and better than these false extremes. This week, Dr. Abigail Favale joins me to talk about biblical sexuality, the goodness of our bodies, and the interdependence that God designed us to live out.
