In this episode, Dr. Mindy Pelz sits down with feminist theologian and author Meggan Watterson to uncover the deliberate suppression of women's inner authority and what reclaiming it looks like right now. Meggan draws on 30 years of scholarship \u2014 including the long-buried Gospel of Mary and the Acts of Paul and Thecla \u2014 to show that the most powerful women in early Christianity weren't lost to history by accident. They were erased because their message was too dangerous: that the greatest power doesn't come from institutions, hierarchies, or external permission. It comes from within. In this conversation you'll learn:   Why women's self-doubt has roots in a 4th-century political decision   What the Gospel of Mary teaches about the &quot;spiritual eye of the heart&quot;   Why ending the war with your body is the first act of reclaiming your power   Why rage is sacred \u2014 and why feeling it fully is healing   What it means to &quot;baptize yourself&quot; in today's world   If you've ever felt unworthy, silenced, or too much \u2014 this episode is for you.
