Join Catherine and renowned biblical scholar Dr. Sandra Richter as they dive deep into the often-overlooked yet powerful roles women play in Scripture, and consider whether the Bible’s representation of women is fully embodied in the church today. Episode Highlights:

Holiness is Next to Godliness

This week theologian Beth Felker Jones joins Kaitlyn to answer a question most of us have probably wondered about: Is God everywhere? And if God is everywhere, why can't we see God? Dr. Jones explains how God is different from everything God made, how we really will see God “face to face” one day, and how we actually can see God now.

"Experiencing the world without chemically altering your brain is going out of style," according to one news outlet. Brian and Aubrey discuss why and what it means, and then talk about gnosticism and complementarianism, whether or not the church is growing post-pandemic, and then--based on a viral TikTok by @steph_murphy, a glimpse inside a truly average middle class house--and whether Joanna Gaines has made us reluctant to practice hospitality.

(During our Summer Break we are airing important past episodes)We're tackling a topic that treads the tightrope between theology and personal acceptance - body theology and body shame. Why have we turned "your body is a temple" into a shaming mechanism? What if our bodies are the place we meet God? The place through which we glorify God?In this episode we wade deep into the waters of Western philosophical tradition, consumer capitalism's impact on body shaming, and the misinterpretation of scripture that's contributed to a culture of body blame.Dr. Beth Felker Jones joins Cyd and Geoff to talk about a theology of the body, and how we can lead our culture and churches into deeper freedom.Follow Dr. Jones at Church Blogmatics.

Description: Rick Warren, the founder and former pastor of Saddleback Church, is speaking out after his church was ejected from the Southern Baptist Convention for ordaining women. Phil explains how the SBC went from being accepting of female leaders, to opposing them, to kicking out churches that depart even slightly on the issue. Then, Kaitlyn talks with Dr. Beth Felker Jones and Dr. Amy Peeler about Joshua Butler's controversial article comparing the gospel to marital sex. They explain what his article gets fundamentally wrong about the New Testament's marriage metaphor. Plus, a new study finds evangelicals are the least liked religious group in America, except by evangelicals who think they're great. And someone is anonymously leaving their mark on Broadway.

Like Jesus, we need to overturn the tables of those peddling gender hierarchies within the temple of our bodies. Because our bodies are temples of the Holy Spirit, we need to overturn this harmful equation of sex and salvation with a gender hierarchy. In this episode, with Dr. Beth Felker Jones, we talk about the recent outrage over the article "Sex Won't Save You (But It Points to the One Who Will)", its distorting and damaging theology, and point toward a better understanding of the goodness of sex, marriage, and the gospel. See also Dr. Jones' book, Faithful: A Theology of Sex, and her blog.Other resources: "Protestant bodies, Protestant bedrooms, & our furious need for a theology thereof" (more from Dr. Jones)."The Theology of the Body" (Catholic view by Christopher West)"The Fundamental Flaws in Josh Butler's Argument" (Jackson Wu)Affiliate links included.Support the showStay Connected: Need coaching or spiritual direction that aligns with this podcast?

In this special podcast episode, we brought together three professors from Northern Seminary to talk about the recent Gospel Coalition article by Josh Butler. Dr. Beth Felker Jones has written a book called Faithful: A Theology of Sex and as a systematic theologian, she is able to help us understand human sexuality from a theological perspective. Beth recently wrote a piece on her Substack that gave us eight reasons why Butler's piece was bad theology. Dr. Lynn Cohick is a New Testament scholar and has written a commentary on Ephesians. She is well-suited to address the Ephesians 5 text Butler's article was based upon. Dr. Scot McKnight has written extensively about the culture of the church in his book, A Church Called Tov, which looks closely at themes of abuse. Scot recently responded in his own Substack to Butler's article by giving three considerations about the culture that produced it. Content Warning: Please be aware that Butler's article included graphic descriptions of sex and some of the conversation in this podcast will include some frank conversation about sex, reference intimate partner violence, and refer to some theology which is very bad for women.

The Spirit is a gift of God. It’s something he has given us. May we be a church and a people that embraces that gift and prays, “Come Holy Spirit, fill us with your power and presence.” Sources: “When Christianity is open to the Spirit and takes the work of the Holy Spirit seriously we recognize that the Gospel is about God’s love for people who are marginalized in a world of sin.” - Beth Felker Jones

Dr. Beth Felker Jones was for years Professor of Theology at Wheaton College, and is presently Professor of Theology at Northern Seminary in Lisle, IL. She is the author of numerous works, including Faithful: A Theology of Sex and Pandemic Prayers: Devotions and Prayers for a Crisis. She recounts her experience with beginning Greek as a student, discusses how that training has aided her as a theological reader and thinker, and offers some counsel to budding theologians.

Doctrine is integrally linked to the practical realities of the Christian life. In order to grow into more faithful practitioners of Christianity, we need to engage in the practice of learning doctrine and understanding how it shapes faithful lives. Lynn Cohick and Sareen Musselman talk with Beth Felker Jones about how students can explore basic Christian doctrines, think theologically so they can act Christianly in a diverse world, and connect Christian thought to their everyday life of faith.

Dr. Beth Felker Jones, earned her doctorate at Duke University, teaches theology at North Seminary. She is the author of books including Faithful: A Theology of Sex, Practicing Christian Doctrine: An Introduction to Thinking and Living Theologically, God the Spirit: Introducing Pneumatology in Wesleyan and Ecumenical Perspective, and The Marks of His Wounds: Resurrection Doctrine and Gender Politics. 

Many believers accept traditional Christian sexual morality but have very little idea why it matters for the Christian life. Beth Felker Jones invites us to a deeper understanding of the body and sexuality and of the spiritual significance of both for followers of Jesus. She sketches a theology of sexuality that demonstrates sex is not about legalistic morals with no basis in reality but rather about the God who is faithful to us.

The scene in the Gospels of Mary anointing Jesus is key to understanding what it means to be a disciple. It flips gender stereotypes, perceived faithfulness to Jesus, and the values of the world on their head.
