MEG and GUEST MICHELLE EASTON (PART 2)
Dr. Meeker and Michelle discuss Star Parker, who is another conservative woman of faith that made it into Michelle’s book. Equally important to kindness and encouragement, Dr. Meeker and Michelle agree that a woman must have courage to speak into issues that truly matter.
