Theology for the Rest of Us220: Why Your Work At Home Matters to God? with Courtney ReissigMany segments of our contemporary society do not value work within the home. Other segments even look down on mothers that choose to stay at-home with the kids instead of “contributing” to society.
But the contributions you make at home, for fathers and mothers, matter significantly to God.
In this episode, Kenny interviews author, speaker, and blogger Courtney Reissig about her newest book Glory in the Ordinary about the meaning and value of mundane tasks in our homes.
When the work of the home fills our days, it is easy to get disillusioned and m...2017-06-0733 minTheology for the Rest of Us177: Should Women Be Allowed to Preach?Traditionally speaking, the role of elder/pastor has been filled by men. But over the last 100-150 years, there has been a movement to allow women to fill the role of elder/pastor within Evangelical churches. With that comes the question as to what type of speaking and preaching women should be allowed to do within the church.
That begs the question: Should women be allowed to preach? If not, why not? If yes, how should that play out in our contemporary church context?
In 1 Timothy 2, the Apostle Paul clearly outlines a form of preaching t...2016-10-2128 minTheology for the Rest of Us176: What About Deborah?Quite often whenever the topic of women in ministry comes up, defenders of the egalitarian position mention the Old Testament judge Deborah. Some people believe that God’s allowance of a female judge in the Old Testament means that women should be invited into ministry leadership positions with no restrictions whatsoever. Is this true?
In this episode, Kenny elaborates upon the story from the Book of Judges and highlights the lessons we can learn from the life of Deborah.

But in Christian theology, the term egalitarianism typically refers to the concept that both males and females ought to be treated precisely the same and viewed the same, that men and women should not be assigned roles based upon their gender (but only upon their individual skill sets), and that all positions of church leadership within the local church should be open to both men and women.

One such modern movement that has influenced Christians is the modern feminist movement.
In this episode, Kenny interviews author Courtney Reissig about God’s perfect design of the genders and the roles each gender ought to serve in terms of how the genders ought to interact and work together.
Courtney talks about how so many believers have allowed the feminist movement to influence their thinking when it comes to the topic of ge...2016-10-1532 minTheology for the Rest of Us171: What is Complementarianism?Complementarianism is the idea that men and women have different complementary roles within marriage and church leadership.
