Episode Synopsis

Lynne Stroy, Katie Walters, and Natasha Gray come straight to the podcast after watching an episode of The Mary Tyler Moore Show. Released in 1970, the show depicts Mary Richards, a single woman in her 30s, living in Minneapolis, trying to make a life for herself. The storyline seems archaic now, as society in 2024 is vastly more opportunistic for women. In today’s episode, we’ll ask, “How far have we progressed from the country's dark history of racism and gender inequality?”   As these three ladies, alongside host Joey Svendsen, reflect on this question, they also discuss the role that ignorance plays in matters of inequality and what grace looks like when offered to those who have more learning to do. What sort of humility and understanding should one tap into when reflecting on past generations or societies in other parts of the world today that err on very important matters. The four also get into theology on women's leadership in the Church and wrap up the conversation talking about the The Chosen Women’s Conference, including a snippet of a woman's story whom, while attending, encountered freedom and forgiveness from a regretful decision she made a decade ago.
