To kick off our Women & Men in the Word: New Testament series, Raechel and Amanda are joined by returning guest and SRT team member, Jessica Lamb. Together, they take a long look at Jesus, as well as the stories of Elizabeth & Zechariah, Mary of Nazareth, John the Baptist, and Anna & Simeon. They discuss the importance of asking questions and wonder aloud what it must have been like to be Jesus’s mama or Zechariah’s son. Along the way, they manage to touch on the topics of fairytales, hammocks, Anne of Green Gables, and the sound of children laughing in the rain.
