WOMEN: SkinnyTok and Staying Small: Why the Church Has to Lead This Conversation Differently

In this candid and heartfelt episode of Lisa Whittle’s mini-series, "Women," Lisa addresses a growing cultural challenge—the impact of social media trends like "SkinnyTok" and the tendency within the church to stay small and avoid bold conversations about women’s roles and identity. Lisa explores how fear-based boundaries, policies, and messaging can inadvertently send damaging messages to women, reinforcing stereotypes and limiting full participation in the body of Christ. She emphasizes the importance of the church leading with grace, truth, and clarity, instead of retreating into silence or avoidance. This episode invites believers to reflect on how the church can foster trust, honor, and authentic discipleship in a way that truly values women as full image-bearers and co-laborers in Christ’s mission.
