I think our listeners are going to love this week’s conversation with storyteller and artist McArthur Krishna. McArthur is full of energy, passion, patience, grace, and hope, and I learned so much as we talked about her efforts to co-publish a series of books with Bethany Brady Spalding on both women in the scriptures and our Heavenly Mother. From discussing the value of studying the stories of women in scripture to sharing her hopeful perspective on gender inequities in the Church or in society, McArthur encourages women to keep making choices that bring them closer to God. She also urges women to not be afraid of a “wild idea,” and to focus on soul growth with an eternal, not just earthly, perspective.
*Thank you to listeners who took time to review and rate the podcast last week! If you haven't already, please take a few minutes to rate and review the podcast. We appreciate your support!*
Challenge: Take a few minutes to journal about one of your favorite women in scripture, or go and study a woman in scripture who may be less familiar to you. Then, look inward and think of something you can do to bring more goodness, faith, and hope into the world because of what you learned.
