Pioneer Women Reflect on Women in the Bible
|
|
We are delighted to share excerpts of this fascinating series,
Pioneer Women Reflect on Women in the Bible
created for The First Presbyterian Church in Philadelphia, with our Nassau Presbyterian family for the next five weeks. View the complete series on
their website
.
July 18: Cynthia Jarvis on Eve (Genesis 3)
Cindy Jarvis was the Associate Pastor of Nassau Presbyterian Church from 1981-1996 and the Minister/Head of Staff of The Presbyterian Church of Chestnut Hill in Philadelphia from 1996-2019.
This series invites you to see the women in the Bible through the eyes of women who were called to teach and preach when women in church leadership were few and far between. Each has been asked to reflect on a woman in Scripture whose character has been important for her own life and vocation. Each session has an accompanying Study Guide provided by Louise Johnson, Associate Pastor, Presbyterian Church of Lawrenceville.
