We must pass on what the Bible says about Biblical womanhood to the next generation in our local church. Susan Hunt lays out 5 fundamentals necessary to know in discipling other women.


Susan Hunt is a pastor’s wife, mother, grandmother, and former Director of Women’s Ministries for the Presbyterian Church in America.
