Discipleship Across the Ages: An Interview with Karen Wright Marsh

Listen in as the editor at The Well interviews Karen Wright Marsh, author of the recently published Vintage Saints and Sinners: 25 Christians Who Transformed My Faith (IVP).

Vintage Saints is a lovely invitation to meet some new friends in faith, but also to look at our own stories of faith and to identify the people who have been for us faithful companions along the way. With permission, we published two excerpts at The Well. We chose two women whom we hadn’t met before, and who had public voices despite their gender, beginnings, and cultural contexts. As fellow women seeking to follow God’s calling in academic work and faithful witness, we hope you enjoy meeting Karen Marsh and her "old friends."
