Hey friends, Sarah Stone Street here, co-hosts of the Strong Women podcast from the Colson Center.

A few weeks ago, I got a text from my daughter Abigail asking me to join her in reading through

0:12.8

the New Testament for Lent. I thought, how can I say no to that? How much richer will it be to read

0:19.2

God's word and community with other Christian women?
