What Happens In This Episode?

We meet a woman who was well ahead of her time. She was extremely well educated in a time when women were not offered an education. She was a powerful force for change in a society in a time when women were not considered to be important members of society. She was a friend to those who were of the elite class as well as those who were in the lower classes. She was famous as a writer of books of instruction, plays, and pamphlets. And she challenged society to follow Jesus when society would rather not! Listen to find out who this woman is!
