What if “helper” in Genesis 2:18 doesn’t mean “assistant,” but a powerful ally? In this episode, Steve & Colleen unpack the Hebrew phrase ezer kenegdo—“a strength corresponding to”—and why God’s design for men and women is strength-to-strength partnership, not hierarchy. You’ll hear a moving prayer of protection from Zechariah 2:5, a candid look at how the Fall distorted God’s design, and a hopeful vision of how Jesus restores mutuality (Gal 3:28). Plus: practical takeaways for marriages, ministry, friendships, and those who are single.
