Listen " Natalie Runion: I Don’t Even Like Women "
Episode Synopsis
Women have a hard time liking - or trusting - other women, even in the church. There are narratives that declare women as competitive, catty, drama queens, jealous, controlling and emotional. When you pair those popular cliches with lived experiences of mean girls, it can be hard to believe in the possibility of healthy female friendships. Natalie Runion believes that not only is there a better option available to us but that, as Christian women, it’s part of our Godliy mission to change it for future generations.
The episode will help you advance your Christian love past tolerance, learn how to rewrite the words that have stuck to you, and continue abiding in Christian community when it’d be easier to walk away.
