The Follower Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

In this episode, we sit down with Katia Adams and Terran Williams to discuss the role of women in The Church and explore why a wound of which we seldom speak is, in fact, an issue of reconciliation that needs to be considered in the Christlike Spirit of Love. 

Katia is an author, preacher, and the founding pastor of The Table Boston. Her book, Equal, explores what the bible says about Women, Men and authority and her online course called Her Voice is designed to equip women preachers. Katia is also married to Julian with whom she is the director of Frequentsee Inc. and is the mother of two children

Terran is an author, speaker, and pastor of Signal church in Cape Town, South Africa. In his book, How God Sees Women, Terran points to God's desire for the unity of men and women, in creation, in the church, and in Christ in what has been described as a landmark book for our generation. Terran is also married to Julie and is the father of five children.  

Both Katia and Terran engaged in this conversation with a rare combination of conviction and grace that made it as encouraging as it was challenging.

If you (or someone you know) are wrestling with what to think or how to pray around the role of women in the Church and why that matters for the world, we hope that you'll be helped by this episode.
