Summary
Guest Bio: Amy is an author, speaker, pastor, wife, and co-ringmaster to her circus of three kids. Through the many face-plants and mudslides in her life, God opened doors for her to write books and to travel and speak, inviting others to discover grace in their daily lives. She is also one of the pastors at Soma City Church in Toledo, OH. As she and her family keep walking on whatever path God has for them, her hope is to use humor and storytelling to anchor people in the truth that God is with us, for us, in us, and working through us.
Show Summary: Which women in the Bible stand out to you? Who is your favorite? Who do you most relate to? Amy Seiffert was surprised when she decided to dig into God’s Word to explore the role of women in Scripture. She found fascinating examples of leadership, courage, and strength from women who are often overlooked in our Bible lessons. Join hosts Vivian Mabuni and Eryn Eddy Adkins with guest Amy Seiffert as they explore inspirational women of the Bible during this God Hears Her conversation.
