Church Interruptions (Pt 2)
I feel that the main reason Paul told “the women” to be silent in church was not because they were women, but because they were interrupting the service with their questions. Ancient culture did not spend much time educating women, and therefore they had plenty of questions to ask. As Craig S. Keener points out,…

Women Can Prophesy (Pt 1)
1 Corinthians 14:33-35 falls on everyone’s ears differently, depending on denominational background. Some hear it submissively while others hear it and can’t help but raise an eyebrow.

We are so bent on fighting scientific progression that we don’t even realize that the church produced some of the theories that we’re still fighting today.

Philosophy or Deity?
There are all kinds of things in life that tell us they have all the answers, but Paul understood that Jesus was the answer—for the fullness of deity was found in him. Therefore, all of the things we learn should be submitted and tested against Him. Check out today’s podcast episode for more. Check out…
