Many paths to healing our sacred hearts

The Talitha Koum Project is a ministry for women. It grew out of years of research and study on how the patriarchal church has historically treated women, deliberately misinterpreting scripture to silence, hurt, and belittle women. Instead of living into their purpose and their calling in God's kingdom, they've instead been made to feel less-than. But that was never what Jesus intended. The Talitha Koum Project offers women different paths to healing: a blog, a podcast, resources for reading and studying, opportunities to attend retreats, workshops, and healing weekends, all focused on gaining a deeper understanding of the empowering relationship Jesus had with women throughout the Gospels.

Our Mission

Reclaiming Spiritual Dignity

We offer a safe, intellectually honest space for women to rediscover how Jesus truly saw, valued, and called them. This journey moves past patriarchal misinterpretations of scripture towards a restorative understanding of faith.

Our work integrates biblical scholarship, historical context, and thoughtful pastoral care. We believe every woman has the right to her own voice, gifted to her by God and encouraged by the example Jesus gave through women in the Gospels.

"No step taken in faith is wasted, not by a God who makes all things new."
