Lydia in the Bible: Businesswoman, Believer, and Church Planter | Bible Stories

Who was Lydia in the Bible—and why does her story still matter today? In this powerful and engaging narrated video, we explore the story of Lydia, a wealthy businesswoman from Thyatira, who became the first recorded Christian convert in Europe. Rooted in Hebrew worship and drawn by faith, Lydia's life takes a powerful turn after a riverside encounter with the Apostle Paul. She opened her heart, her home, and her hands to God's mission—and helped launch one of the strongest churches in the New Testament.
