Women Worth Knowing Podcast
Welcome to “Women Worth Knowing,” a podcast hosted by author Cheryl Brodersen and history teacher Jasmine Alnutt!
We have always loved reading biographies about Christian women through the ages, whether they be missionaries, musicians, reformers, authors, or wives and mothers! Not only do we find their stories fascinating, but their examples have served as a constant source of inspiration to our Christian lives. So Cheryl had an idea: Why not turn these stories into a podcast so others can be as blessed by these stories as we are? And that’s what we did!
While there are certainly many familiar figures with captivating stories of God’s work in and through their lives, there are also plenty of lesser-known women whose lives were truly remarkable as well. We want you to get to know ALL of them! So join us each week for a lively conversation as we explore the lives of well-known—and not so well-known—Christian women in history. Trust us—these are definitely women worth knowing!
Join us each week for a lively conversation between authors Cheryl Brodersen and Robin Jones Gunn as they explore the lives of well-known—and not so well-known—Christian women in history. Trust us, these are definitely women worth knowing!
Pam Wing grew up in an atheistic home in Berkley, California. Though her father disparaged any talk of Jesus in their house, he was nevertheless a good father and encouraged Pam in her gift of music, and especially in her talent as harpist. Pam was broken hearted after her father died when she was 13. For a time, she thought she might give up the harp, but instead she found her only solace in playing. During her college years, Pam was hit with some severe trauma that she could not overcome. Having not slept for weeks, she called out to God to, if he was real, give her peace. That was the first night that Pam slept soundly in months. The next day, at her college campus she went in search of God. Having unsuccessfully sought for him through some of her dorm mates, she was approached by some Christian kids from Intervarsity Fellowship. This is how Pam came to find Jesus and receive Him into her heart. What followed was a journey of exciting discovery that Pam shares on the episodes. Join us and hear Pam talk about coming to know Jesus, and then learning of a rich and vast Christian heritage that was hidden from her for years.
