[S1E11] Stages of life & liturgical clothing
If reforming our clothing means returning to the patterns of scripture, does that mean we should be wearing sackcloth when fasting, and that ministers should wear robes? Also, if clothing should reflect our nature and place, how does age factor into this — since our nature and our place in society changes as we grow older?ReferencesThe sermon on the sabbath as a celebration:Vocation, part 13: the call to restThe article on fasting:Fasting: scripture’s answer to consumerismOther articles:Jon Herr, The Mini...

[S1E10] What it means for clothes to be beautiful (or not)
Now that we understand the symbolic nature of clothing, how should we begin reforming it? What does God want our clothes to look like, compared to what we have now? To begin answering this, we need to understand the connection between beauty, glory, and goodness — both in creation, and in clothing specifically.ReferencesThe sermon on sacrifice as a creational pattern:Vocation, part 11: the calling to sacrificeTwo other essays developing these ideas in more detail: The symbolism of sacrificesDeath and sacrifice before the fall

[S1E9] Answering questions & objections to head coverings
Following up our explanation of why head coverings matter in the new covenant age, we consider several objections — and even more questions — to flesh out the exegetical case, and apply it to modern life.Objections answered:1. It’s just cultural [00:02:08]2. The hair is the covering [00:15:32]3. Prayer and prophecy doesn’t mean worship, but spiritual gifts [00:17:23]4. We can’t know what Paul really means, so we can’t be dogmatic about following it [00:27:14]5. Men being uncovered doesn’t fit with men wearing crowns [00:28:45]6.

[S1E8] The cosmological significance of head coverings
In the new cosmological order inaugurated by Christ, where all believers now serve inside the veil of the most-holy place, men should no longer cover their heads, but women should—and both for the same reason the priests of the Old Covenant did. In the case of men, there is no longer anything between God and them in the hierarchy; rather, man is the glory of God, and should therefore shine forth in the heavenly court. In the case of women, they signify their place under men by covering themselves—since they, as the glory of man, should not comp...

Contrary to much hand-wringing from a surprising diversity of theological traditions, the church is clearly authorized by the patterns of scripture to institute and observe festivals like Christmas.

HOME: Taking Dominion
Steven Manuel and Mark Douglass (his old friend from Texas) talk about the concept of ‘dominionism’ that’s moving around some circles and inspires a new group of books (listed below). This is NOT a thorough dissection of the subject; Mark is a novice at the topic and Steven is just trying to get his head around it. They discuss whether God wants his sons “taking over”, where godly ambition and selfish ambition diverge, and the “pope of Bastrop, Texas,” Bob Long. Mark Douglass’ community, training center, and equipping confab is The Viceroy Project. Get him out into your neck o...

Choosing Fruitlessness?
Is it wrong for a married couple to choose childlessness? We would say, ordinarily, yes, but tell us more. This is a touchy and controversial subject, and we wade into it in today's episode. We strongly encourage you to read these two articles from Michael Foster and Bnonn Tennant: "Fruitfulness is Normal" (https://itsgoodtobeaman.com/fruitfulness-is-normal/) and "If Marriages Should Be Fruitful, Can We Use Contraceptives" (https://itsgoodtobeaman.com/if-marriages-should-be-fruitful-can-we-use-contraceptives/).

Episode 4 – Sam Harris’ Abortion Logic (Or Shall We Say His Abortion of Logic?)
In this crazy episode, we rail on the movie “The Last Jedi,” ask whether or not we would marry someone who is going to die in 6 months, rant about home-birthing (or at least one of us does), and dig into an audio clip where Sam Harris expresses moral certainty about the issue of abortion (which one has to wonder, after listening to him, whether he is certain at all!). Here’s Bnonn Tennant’s excellent analysis of The Last Jedi: “The Last Jedi is the First Successful Leftist Porno.” It deserves to be read! See also Episode 92 of Waking Up, right around t...
