Stay ConnectedIn our culture, if a woman is said to have strength it usually means she is competing with a man or acting like a man.
What if there is strength in the way God made us, as women?
There is and we recognize it when we see it.
We are excited to introduce you to women who display true strength, not in spite of being women but because of it.

In today's episode, we have a special mentoring moment with Naomi Mueller. Naomi is an 83-year-old piano teacher who shares about her life growing up, her marriage to her husband Don, her love for music, and the loss of her son.

Today we talk with Carl Trueman about his latest book, Strange New World: How Thinkers and Activists Redefined Identity and Sparked the Sexual Revolution. In a time where much cultural conversation focuses on gender identity, we often wonder, "How did we get here?" Carl offers insight into how our culture has been formed and what we can do to help bring the beauty of God's design back to our communities.

Our guest today on the podcast is Debbie Greisen. After being raised on the mission field of Hong Kong, she began her journey teaching grade school in Australia, the Marshall Islands, Africa, and the Middle East. Debbie adopted both of her daughters from China while teaching overseas. Upon moving to the United States, Debbie continued teaching in Washington state until her recent retirement. But retirement hasn't slowed Debbie down, and she shares with us about the challenges of engaging the culture and the encouragement the Colson Fellows program has been in that journey.
