Many of us who have grown up in the church have received mixed messages when it comes to what the Bible has to say about women. Even those who have little-to-no church experience have likely heard some sort of (so-called) biblical perspective on the role and value of women. However, many of these “facts” have been distorted, misunderstood, and even misused by men and women alike.
The God who inspired Jeremiah to write these words in Jeremiah 29:11 meant them for women as much as for men: “For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope.”
Scriptures referenced include Genesis 1:27; Galatians 3:28; and Acts 10:34-35.
