Supporting Women Leaders in the Church & Marketplace

In this episode of Passing the Pulpit, we sit down with author and leadership mentor Peggy Bodde to explore how church leaders can better support women called to lead in their workplaces, homes, and communities. Drawing from her book Sacred Work, Peggy offers hard-earned wisdom and practical insight into the unique challenges women face as they balance faith, leadership, and life.

Together, Matt and Peggy discuss how pastors and ministry leaders can recognize, affirm, and empower the women in their congregations—helping them see their work not as separate from ministry, but as a sacred calling. They also tackle common tensions around women in leadership and share ways the church can become a place of genuine partnership, encouragement, and spiritual growth.

Whether you’re a pastor, ministry leader, or someone seeking to integrate faith and work, this conversation will challenge and inspire you to see leadership through a more holistic, Kingdom-focused lens.
