A strong theological foundation plays a vital role in encouraging and sustaining hope. This session from The Gospel Coalition‘s 2023 National Conference—led by Dr. Ligon Duncan, Nancy Guthrie, Leigh Swanson, and Melissa Kruger—provides practical advice and encouragement for pastors, elders, women’s ministry leaders, and others who desire to start and sustain biblically faithful and theologically rich women’s ministries in their congregations. This session is entitled “Hope (and Help!), for Women’s Ministry.”
