EPISODE
Why do digital ministry spaces still struggle with gender equity?
Jeff Reed convenes Amanda Souza, Nicole Howard, and Ann Bosarge for a frank conversation about why women remain underrepresented in digital ministry — and what to do about it. The panel traces the problem from childhood messaging and missing mentors to keyboard-warrior persecution and token-female tokenism. Concrete steps surface: men must actively create space, women must apprentice other women, and the church must stop hiding behind titles. A challenging, honest episode that moves from diagnosis to action.
