134: An Introduction to Early Church Mothers (Part 2) with Emilie Cubino

Emilie Cubino is a wife, mom, graduate student, business owner, and writer who is passionate about church history. Today she comes back on the show to continue our conversation about early church mothers (whom many of us probably don't know anything about, but should!). I hope you come away from this episode encouraged and inspired by these examples of women who did amazing things for the sake of Christ and the wellbeing of the early church!     What We Chat about in Today’s Episode: ~Saint Marcella and her impact on the early church; her amazing strength in the face of adversity ~The importance of asking ourselves if we would be willing to stand up for truth as the early church mothers did ~Meditating on the question of whether or not we are willing not only to die for our faith, but to actually live for it ~Melania the Elder and her impact on the early church; her faithfulness in the midst of seemingly mundane moments ~The beautiful uniqueness and difference seen among the women in early church history; the beautiful implications of this for us today ~Our ability to be strong in Christ, regardless of each of our individual personalities ~Living lives of faith and cultivating faithfulness right where we have been placed by God - even if that looks like working in the background or doing the same thing every single day ~And more!
