Gustave Flaubert once wrote, “God is in the details.“ The truth of this statement is born out in this evening‘s writing from Saint John Climacus on the fathers' understanding and description of the development of a passion within the soul. With great clarity, St. John takes us step-by-step through the inner movements of the mind and the heart. The battle begins with an assault. An image or an idea is encountered for the first time and enters into the heart. There's no sin in this, but our response is important nonetheless. If we begin to converse with the image or idea its presence will take us a step further. We cannot allow ourselves to linger with such images even if we do not seem to be moved by them. Eventually, Saint John tells us, if we do linger we can fall into consent; the soul bends down, as it were, and begins to take delight in the temptation. Such temptations can also come upon us with force; seeking all at once to destroy any semblance of order or peace within the heart. What is important is that we struggle; that we engage in the spiritual battle and fight with equal or greater force against what seeks to afflict us. A passion develops whenever a sin nestles with persistence in the soul and forms a habit. It is then that the sins has put down deep roots and begins to guide and direct our decisions and actions. The passion is unequivocally condemned in every case. St. John tells us, therefore, that we must seek to cut off the first assault with a single blow in order to prevent everything that might follow. Finally, Saint John reveals to us just how humble we must be in the spiritual warfare. There are temptations that can come to us that he describes as a “flick of the mind”. They are instantaneous and inapprehensible. There can be something in our life that triggers a memory or movement from the depths of our unconscious. It gives rise to or stirs a passion that has not been healed, but merely buried. All of this teaches us that our desire must be directed toward God and God alone. The human heart can be a treacherous thing, and as the prophet asks, “who can trust it?“ It is God alone who we must trust. We must hope in his promises and the grace that he offers us from moment to moment. This is our path to healing. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:14:15 FrDavid Abernethy: page 150 para 72 00:15:34 angelo: Reacted to "page 150 para 72" with

Tonight we made the transition from St. John's Step on Gluttony and its offspring to our discussion of Purity and Chastity in Step number 15. Again, as we read slowly through the text and begin to unpack it, we begin to see the larger picture; the image of humanity redeemed. We see what it means to be made in the image and likeness of God, and the experience of embracing our full dignity and identity. What is held out to us is an incorruptible freedom and joy as our love becomes ordered toward God. We begin to see the true beauty of the things of the world, of others, and of God himself. As I've often mentioned, the desert fathers were the first depth psychologists; they present to us the path that brings healing of soul. They see the human person in his fullness and we see in their writings such our true dignity and destiny. Our struggle often is found in the fact that we've never come to taste that freedom, the joy, the capacity to love unimpeded by our sin. The ascetic life is not about endurance, or personal health or the ordering of our life so much as it is about the desire for God, his love, and to share in the life that he makes possible for us. It has been said that “Beauty will save the world”. In the writings of the fathers, we are called to see this beauty first in the person of Christ; and in and through him the beauty of the life that is held out to us. May we desire it with all of our hearts. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:12:16 Sr Barbara Jean Mihalchick: Who?

Tonight we picked up with Step, 14 on “that clamorous mistress, the stomach“. Climacus begins to draw us into a discussion of one of the most important and neglected spiritual practices - fasting and the struggle with gluttony. This is a struggle, Saint John tells us, that remains with us through our entire life. Our desire for food or our misuse of food is something that is part of the very fabric of our life. It is a bodily appetite. Not unlike other appetites, it must be ordered toward the good or in the way that is in accord with the wisdom of God. Yet, John tells us, gluttony is hypocrisy of the stomach. In a sense it deceives us. Even when we are filled, it tells us that we are empty, and even when we are bursting, it “cries out that it is hungry.“. It also leads us to devise seasonings, and sweet and rich dishes. The moment that we think that we have control of it, it shows itself in another area of our life. Unchecked, it leads to something even more serious - fornication. If we do not order this basic appetite for food, then we are going to be disordered and the use of our other bodily appetites, including our sexual appetite. And so, St. John tells us that he who coddles the body makes it wilder. If we do not control it, then it will overcome us. If we are self-aware, we know we eat for many different reasons. On an emotional level, we often eat to console ourselves or because we are feeling aggressive or anxiety. We distract ourselves and deal with feelings of emptiness by filling our bodies with food. There are many ways that we convince ourselves that restraining ourselves is inappropriate. For example, we tell ourselves that hospitality demands that we break our fasting practices. Rather than being honest with ourselves and others, we freely let go of these disciplines, not out of love for others but to satisfy our baser needs. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:14:38 Bonnie Lewis: I agree wholeheartedly! 00:15:46 Bonnie Lewis: Let's do it. 00:16:35 CMoran: Was it Rod Dreher? 00:36:57 Anthony: On Fasting, I recall sayings from people like St. Paisios to the effect that we live like pagans since we neglect prayer and fasting. I wonder if there is an inverse correlation between a failure to fast and pray and the increased use of unwholesome images. 00:38:05 Jeff O.: Is there a reason or importance in the way Climacus orders anger and acedia before gluttony/fornication/greed etc on the ladder?

Tonight we read Step number 12 on Lying. Surprisingly this has always been a challenging step to read and to read as a group. Immediately our minds begin to swirl with the costs of loving the Truth and understanding that Truth is a person. Our starting point in such discussions is often examples that are extreme; things or circumstances that people might face within this life where lying might be justified. St. John addresses this and much more within the step. However, one has to be willing to suspend judgment and allow St. John to guide us along a path that deepens our sensitivity in regards to the Truth as a whole. Our starting point must be Christ. We must begin to understand that lying is a sin against charity, and to lie when making a vow or an oath is a denial of God himself. St. John understands very well that the Evil One can use something as innocent and enjoyable as humor to justify and to legitimize lying. Yet, John tells us that there are no small lies and once spoken they have an effect upon ourselves and others. They diminish the spirit of mourning; that is, compunction within the human heart. In doing so they distract us from the remembrance of God and the things of God. We must remember that God has given us a conscience, a means of knowing the truth with Him. This is what we must form through the gospel and through our participation in the life of Christ. We must also remember that the Evil One is the Father of Lies and will use a lie under the pretext of protecting others. In the face of this, St. John tells us, “when we are completely cleansed of lying, then we can resort to it, but only with fear and as occasion demands.” Only when the heart has been completely purified, where there is no love of falsehood and where there is the presence of great discernment, can such a decision be made. To love truth, St. John tells us, is the root of every good because it is to love Christ. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:25:04 Anthony Rago: I've also been thinking that our bodies and societies are parables of truth; and we can be lying by engaging in bad lifestyles. 00:37:35 Anthony Rago: I can imagine a confessor becoming very exasperated if we treat all this as confessable sins; and it would be very wearing on all of us. 00:39:28 David Swiderski: Like many other things isn't discernment take a place here. Is this so people will think I am funny (pride), will this hurt someone, will it erode trust (the cost of lies) or lead to a habit? 00:39:39 Anthony Rago: That makes sense, thanks 00:40:57 Cindy Moran: Corrie ten Boom lied to the Nazis when they asked if jews were in the house. This is ok? 00:44:09 Ren Witter: I feel like this is a really hard one. Intellectually, I actually feel like it is easy to understand. Emotionally, it kind of feels like one of those instances where being Christian can feel like a “kill-joy” to put it in a light way. Maybe the immense anxiety I feel in response to this is coming from the fear that being a Christian means no joy or every-day happiness. Its weird because I know that that isn't true, but sometimes it can be hard to reconcile the lived experience of Christianity with the things the Fathers write. 00:46:34 Debra: Replying to "Corrie ten Boom lie..." I've read a priest's response to this, is Yes, it's ok; because the Nazis didn't have a right to what's going on in their home That we have dignity, and a right to privacy I'm interested to hear what Fr Abernethy says

There are certain moments while reading the fathers when one trembles. The truth expressed is so vivid and pierces so deeply that the experience of it is visceral. One is shaken. This is not easy to endure, and perhaps there are moments when reading such texts becomes a stumbling block for our minds and our hearts. However, when they speak the truth of Christ and when they reveal the depth of love that we are called to in Him, ultimately these words are healing. The fathers, in so many ways, are spiritual physicians. Their words cut like a scalpel and cut deeply. But they cut out the “rot” as John describes it. The remembrance of wrongs, which is the offspring of anger, is not something that we can remove on our own. Untreated it spreads like a cancer. The fact, John tells us it has no offspring because it poisons the soul so completely that it makes us incapable of love. May God give us the grace to listen with humility and gratitude. We are given such loving fathers who desire nothing but our healing. When we begin to trust that, then their words become as bright and illuminating as the sun. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:03:54 FrDavid Abernethy: Page 125 Step number 9 00:20:29 Anthony: Another kind of remembering wrongs is to trod the path of bad example someone has set...examples, hearing cursing, and then carrying on that "tradition" instead of cutting it off; or doing violence because someone else did violence to you (a chain of abuse). 00:22:58 Eric Ewanco: My translation titles this section "On Malice" (with a translation note that also offers "remembrance of wrongs). Your translation refers to "hourly malice" (mine says "rancor by the hour").

As we follow Saint John's teaching on the passion of anger, we truly begin to get a sense of what a great spiritual teacher and physician he and the other fathers are. St. John has the capacity to see the various ways that anger manifests itself in our lives, the subtlety of the demon's trickery, and the danger of our own blindness to self-conceit. St. John makes it very clear to us that if we struggle with the passion of anger we must be willing to place ourselves in a situation where we are going to be able to diagnose it and bring it before another in order that a healing balm might be applied. The person who is in the grip of anger is going to bring agitation to all those around him. Therefore, a person must go where this passion might revealed by testing and overcome by trial. Austerity in life and firmness from one's spiritual director or elder is often needed to break one free from the grip of this passion. However, John tells us, he who has won this battle by sweat has conquered all the passions that precede it. Let us then not be afraid to be mortified in regards to our self-esteem and pride; for they both collaborate to hold us captive. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:07:22 FrDavid Abernethy: page 122, paragraph 17 00:10:12 Bonnie Lewis: Hi Father David! 00:14:21 FrDavid Abernethy: page 122 para 17 00:55:12 Ambrose Little, OP: “fuller's shop”: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fulling 01:03:43 Bonnie Lewis: we lost you 01:04:17 carol nypaver: Come back, Father! 01:04:28 Sheila Applegate: You are frozen for us all. :( 01:15:58 Rafael Patrignani: Thaís week I had to face w tough situation from my Chief, who received false accusations against me.

The unvarnished truth is not easy to hear or see. This is especially true when it reveals that which is within our own heart or what is lacking in our love or our faith. Saint John Climacus gives us many stories from the lives of monks who live obedience to the point where it surpasses reason and right judgment; or when it seems to reach the point of absurdity. And indeed this is how the world sees Christianity and in its truest form; as foolishness and a stumbling block. In so many ways we have domesticated the gospel and the Christian life. What we bear witness to is the love of the kingdom made manifest in Christ and the cross. We let go of self-will and self-identity in order to put on the true self that is found only in Christ. We are sons and daughters of God and our identity is to be shaped by this reality. All that we do must begin and end with God otherwise it is vanity. When reading the fathers we are compelled to ask ourselves, “Who am I?“Who is Christ to me?” --- Text of chat during the group: 00:15:07 FrDavid Abernethy: page 92 para 110 00:16:56 Bonnie Lewis: Do tell. 00:17:45 Bonnie Lewis: your room is looking nice 00:18:33 Eric Ewanco: you do have a euphonious voice 00:25:08 Br Theophan the non-recluse: What page #?

One participant in this evening‘s group commented that the counsel that St. John gives is eminently practical. This is true of the writings of the fathers as a whole. Their wisdom is rooted in Praxis; the practice of the faith, the exercise of the faith. Their writings seem to make so much sense because they are rooted in experiences that we so often take for granted or fail to explore. What is our motivation for doing or not doing certain things? What is it that drives us or leads us to negligence? What one begins to see in John's teaching is the beauty of obedience. Obedience is our capacity to listen to God without any impediment caused by self-will, without our ego blinding us to the truth about ourselves. Setting aside the false self allows us to act with a precious freedom. It cuts through all of our machinations about particular circumstances or responsibilities. It allows us to take up things with love and to see them through the eyes of love. We begin to understand why the fathers, then, speak of loving the virtues. We are to love obedience because it is not something that inhibits us but rather allows our true identity to emerge. It brings healing to our fundamental spiritual sickness as human beings - to put ourselves in the place of God. One of our great weaknesses is that we project our own image on to God and so create the illusion of fidelity. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:15:23 Marco da Vinha: Good evening from Blighty! 00:19:10 Daniel Allen: I'm sorry where are we at? 00:19:37 Bonnie Lewis: #91 00:20:03 Daniel Allen: Thank you 00:25:26 Ambrose Little, OP: About meditating on what's in the office, part of the purpose of the antiphons and the brief meditation at the start of each psalm/canticle is to give the mind an anchor for that meditation, not too dissimilar from the mysteries in the rosary.

Tonight we continued with our study of Step 4 on Obedience. As we go deeper into St. John's writing we begin to see the fruit of this virtue that often remains hidden to our eyes. Our obedience fosters habit; in particular the habit of virtue where one acknowledges that God is a fellow laborer. Obedience also shapes the way that we approach the confession of our sins. It allows us to see their gravity, and it fosters within us the deepest sense of compunction. The fruit of this, however, is a repentance the draws us back into the arms of God swiftly and allows us to experience His healing grace. The great virtue also makes us cherish the gift of the Holy Eucharist more fully. We begin to understand how precious this gift is and so desire to protect our minds and our hearts from the greater attacks that often come after receiving our Lord. It also allows us to see that we do not engage in this battle in isolation but rather we march with the first martyr, that is Christ. Through obedience we always have the Divine Physician with us. If we do fall we are immediately aided and healed by his presence. For this reason we must also choose well a competent spiritual physician, an elder who himself has been formed and shaped by this great virtue. For St. John tells us that obedience brings humility and out of this humility is born dispassion. The more that we walk along this path the more we begin to experience the angelic life; that is, we begin to experience the very peace and the joy of the kingdom, God draws us into the very perfection of His Love. --- Text of chat during the group: 00:09:42 FrDavid Abernethy: page 86, para 63 00:14:35 CMoran: I work at WQED so maybe I can run across 5th Ave. for liturgy. 00:14:49 CMoran: Cindy 00:15:46 Anthony: A lot of restraunters and homeschooling families? 00:18:07 Bonnie Lewis: Excellent! 00:20:11 Rachel: Thatsna 10 percent down payment in Cali 00:20:26 Rachel: lol 00:35:38 Marco da Vinha: Though I am a Latin, looking at Forgiveness Sunday just before Lent - the "Tithe of the Year" - brings to mind Mt 5:23-24: "Therefore if you bring your gift to the altar, and there remember that your brother has something against you, leave your gift there before the altar, and go your way.

My own experience in the confessional has always been "pray X/Y/Z" and never any concrete actions to combat the vices I struggle with.

This is Voxology. Welcome to episode 300 and to the new podcast name, Voxology! We're excited to start a new chapter in this continued journey with all of you! Today in this mammoth, celebratory episode, we spend time talking about the Church, from postures of both lament and hope. We hear from beloved friend and old co-host Bonnie Lewis on why she feels she is ‘post-church,' from friend of the show Shane Claiborne on actions the church needs to take to heal and grow and from the one and only Gombis on where we've been and hope for the future. Then, most importantly, we hear from many of you. You share your hopes and laments with us as we look further on down the long road. First, Tim puts Mike on the hot seat to talk about why he started a podcast in the first place six years ago and what his hopes are for the next 300 episodes.

Extracting Diversity from The Bible with Bonnie Lewis

Uncharted with Ines Franklin

Play Episode Listen Later Jun 9, 2021 64:37

Many of us, during our journey of faith, have a desire to become more educated or more certain on specific biblical topics, as we think it is vital to the strength of our walk with the Lord. However, sometimes the search can lead to more confusion. What do we do then? This week, I am joined by Bonnie Lewis. Bonnie thought that if she became more educated and more certain on biblical topics that she would be a stronger believer. However, during her time and after completing her education, she found herself with more questions and a greater awareness of all she needed to learn. Bonnie became passionate about seeking out diverse voices, and this led her to sometimes chose the road less traveled. Bonnie is a skilled author, speaker, and theologian. She completed a Master of Theology at Fuller Seminary. She is the author of “timshell”, the first-ever idiomatic Bible translation. She translated certain sections of the Bible and brings a fresh perspective to the way we read Scripture. She enjoys looking at the Word to get as much of the richness as possible from it. If you're looking to have a broader view of the Scriptures, I think she is a refreshing resource. She also works as a Creativity and Divinity Coach at Radical Wellness Collaborative as she seeks to walk with others on their journey of faith. Listen in as we unpack from Bonnie's journey through certainty, biblical literacy, and learning to amplify new and unique voices that can help us grow in our relationship with God.

One of the few women to translate the Bible, Bonnie Lewis discusses her journey that led to this wonderful masterpiece. The journey was wrought with outside criticism revolving around a female's audaciousness to do such a thing as translate the Bible. Bonnie's “inner Fundamentalist" wasn't so quick to let her off the hook in pursuing this endeavor; but over time, her Maker made paths straight and vision cleared to proceed. Part of Pastor With No Answers extended family, Bonnie, shares her journey that led to her writing the enlightening idiomatic translation of the Bible. It's called Timshel, a collection of the most commonly heard stories in the Old and New Testament. So, what do we make out of the chauvinistic nature of the Bible? When everyone is getting a different meaning out of the Bible, how do we know what to trust? And what finite being gets to be an authority of God's work? We discuss this and more.We also discuss a survival story from the big Texas snow that occurred this past winter. Joey comes clean with how Bonnie (and her husband, Cy) were recipients of some “anxiety texts” of his, around the time he was in crisis with his mental health.

With the use of modern psychology, and the emphasis on the context in which the text was written, these stories come alive in a whole new way.

For our inaugural podcast we are excited to dive into the story behind the Timshel Translation, introduce you to our hosts Bonnie Lewis and Jeremy Armstrong and answer the most frequently asked questions about Timshel (What is it? What is our methodology? How can I order one?). We also dive into the writing process, talk about creativity, translation, and interpretation. We believe that there are lines written on the pages of Scripture and then the space in between is an invitation to understand, wrestle, and find new meaning. Exploring the text and then exploring everything around the text is at the core of what we do. To this end, our episodes will alternate in which we spend one week "In the Text" talking about all things Bible, exegesis, translation, history and culture, and then spend one (or two!) weeks in episodes titled "In Between the Lines". In these episodes we will interview special guests, with a wide array of different perspectives, to discuss a topic that naturally flows from the translation. We hope you enjoy the process of taking the neatly packaged translations and interpretations we have all come to know and pull back the layers with us to reveal something deeper and something new.

Calling a Homebound Senior (0:00:00) Do you remember huddling next to grandma or grandpa as a kid, looking starry eyed as they told you fascinating stories about their lives? They loved that experience just as much as you did. Unfortunately, as grandchildren grow up and family members move away, seniors can be lonely if they have no one to interact with. Luckily, The Retired Senior Volunteer Program sponsors a service opportunity called Friendly Callers. Their goal is to brighten the days of homebound seniors – simply by calling them once a week. Bonnie Lewis, the director of Friendly Calls, joins us to talk about the program. Iceboating (0:13:15) Imagine you're cruising along in a sailboat, the wind playing with your hair, the sun on your face… except the temperatures are below freezing, and the entire surface of the lake is iced over. This is iceboating, an international winter sport where sailors race boats across the surface of a frozen lake, sometimes reaching speeds of 70 miles per hour or higher! Here to tell us more is the Executive Secretary of the International DN Ice Yacht Racing Association, Deb Whitehorse. Thanksgiving Table Games (0:29:40) So we've already started eating Thanksgiving dinner, we've gone around the table to share what we're thankful for, and we've heard all about Uncle Bryan's new job... what else are we supposed to talk?? Dr. Anne Fishel, founder of The Family Dinner Project, joins us to teach us some table games to keep things exciting with those you are celebrating with. The CEO Kid (0:50:35) With tech and the job market developing so quickly, what will the job market look like for our kids? According to a recent report, about 85% of the jobs that will exist in 2030 haven't even been invented yet! How on earth can we prepare kids to enter a job market that doesn't even exist yet? Here to tell us about the answer that she found is Leah Remillet, international speaker, consultant and founder of CEO Kid, an online academy that teaches kids entrepreneurial skills. Oncologists Bringing Light to Patients (1:06:13) You know those especially hard days where all you need is a hug? You know how much better you feel after getting one? Well, imagine what it would be like to be stuck in a treatment center for months on end, unsure if your health is going to improve or decline. What difference would a hug make then? Dr. Niraj Mehta started an initiative at his clinic, 21st Century Oncology, to bring hugs to kids who are fighting cancer. He's here to tell us more about this initiative and how it's impacting patients.  Caring for Pets in Cold Weather (1:25:35) You wouldn't let your kids run out into the cold without a jacket, would you? So why do you let your pets do it? Depending on where you live, the cold weather can prove deadly for some of our beloved four-legged friends. Knowing how to adjust their routines as the winter rolls around can help them stay healthy and happy. Dr. John Howe is president of the American Veterinary Medical Association. He's here to tell us how we can best take care of our pets during the colder months.

One of the most divisive questions in the modern church is whether or not biological sex plays a role in who should be allowed to preach (and there are other issues wrapped up in this one, like whether women should be primary bread-winners, etc). Egalitarians say, “No, let the women preach!” Complementarians say, “Yes, men only; that is how God set things up.” In this episode, we hear from Dan’s Godmother Barb Clark, who is an elder in an Egalitarian church, but has some nagging concerns about the whole thing. Then the bulk of the episode is spent with Rev. Bonnie Lewis, a pastor, teacher and Bible translator, who not only makes her argument for Egalitarianism, but also responds to many of the most common counter arguments from the Contemplentarian side.

In light of recent changes at Vox, Bonnie asks us to reflect on an important question: What’s our next move? In response, she examines a similar scenario the disciples faced (John 12:20-26), and Jesus’s telling response. When Greeks asked Philip and Andrew to meet Jesus, they hesitated because they were wary of the type of influence they might have on their community, which had survived some traumatic experiences. When they consulted Jesus, He responded by telling them He wasn’t going to be around forever—it was their turn to make a decision as a community. Change is hard, but the way we walk forward matters. There are some things that have to die in order for new life to be birthed. There are some things that need to stay in order for community to get stronger. Bonnie concludes by reminding us of what the disciples were: a small, grassroots movement started by 12 guys who—after experiencing trauma—stuck it out and stuck together. The way they responded changed the world. Would love to see your comments and thoughts below!

Peacemaking and the Parable of the Talents - March. 4 2018

Bonnie Lewis, our guest speaker from Austin, TX, addresses the topic of peacemaking amid conflicts. She provides a unique perspective on the parable of the talents in Mathew 25:14-30. Dictionaries define peace as the absence of conflict, yet we learn from these verses that there is more --- the reward of entering the joy of the Lord. Bonnie, when struggling to find peace in the birth of her stillborn child, eventually realized that one’s perception of God affects the ability to gain reconciliation, peace, and joy. If we don’t trust that God is good and can bring joy and peace during conflict, we become like the servant, in verse 24, who distrusted his master. His fear and misunderstanding of his master’s goodness and grace caused him to be judged thereby with a loss of the rewards, joy and peace. What you believe about God affects your ability to find peace and reconciliation in a difficult situation. Would love to see your comments and thoughts below!

The American dream may define most of our every day lives. However, our guest Bonnie Lewis was able to prophetically attack the American dream and reveal to us, that it is not a big enough dream for God. Our God gives us a new identity and a new purpose every day. As we live in God's reality, we are able to truly understand that our work is for his glory, and not for our titles. We will truly find purpose when our work doesn't define us, but our place in God's kingdom.

Bonnie targets the appropriate way to apply the Word of God to those who are hurting. She cites how the Pharisees were renowned for their scriptural knowledge, yet they often poorly applied the scripture. With good intentions, Christians can fall into this mode when responding to the hurts of others with Cliché responses such as “All things work together for good,” “Everything happens for a reason”, “God helps those who help themselves”, “God needed another angel”, etcetera. Bonnie stresses how God’s word should always be carefully used in a way that brings peace, refuge, and healing. This requires us to take responsibility and become “People of Text”, who research verses in biblical context and by cross-referencing. Digger deeper into the meaning of select verses allows us the opportunity to powerfully transform lives. Storytelling by Sada Arcade Sada Arcade shares how she dealt with despair in her life. The eating disorder, bulimia, entered her life at age 14. She left a Russian faith-based church that encouraged her family to sever ties with her. She suffered in an abusive marriage. After a period of spiritual wandering, she eventually restored family relationships, remarried, and had a child. Later, Sada had an enlightening moment with God’s Word, and she gained control of her bulimia. After a few years of controlling the problem, she found herself falling back into the bulimia cycle. 13 years later, the struggle continues, but Sada has learned that you don’t have to be completely healed to share the good news of Christ, and God ultimately reigns.

This week, Bonnie Lewis walks us through the practice of burnt offering described in Leviticus 1—specifically, the custom of skinning the sacrificial animals. The skinning, unique to the Israelites’ offering, carries significance because it represents being discovered by God while naked. In Genesis 3, when Adam and Eve sinned and found themselves naked, God did not just expel them from the garden; He provided a garment for them and clothed them. In the New Testament, Jesus uses this imagery and language from the offering in the tabernacle when he teaches us to not worry about clothes because he will provide us with what we need. The key is, unlike in the Old Testament, in which the Israelites were commanded to bring offerings to make atonement for sin, Jesus shows us a new covenant where there are no more sacrifices to be made. Jesus saw us beautiful while we were still sinners and offered himself as the perfect sacrifice. Storytelling by Kali Echaves Kali Echaves shares with us how she found God’s grace as she was fighting anxiety, depression and physical health issues. Her anxiety had become so severe that she felt hunted by God; she couldn’t even read the Bible, sing praise songs, or go to church. As she was going through a painful process of therapy, medications, and lifestyle changes, all she could do was to pray to God for His mercy. One day, she realized that God sees her and meets with her exactly where she is.

In this episode Bonnie Lewis offers to discuss emails she received about the topic of 'women in leadership'. It becomes clear as the conversation moves forward, the she has clearly faced opposition in the evangelical/non-denominational church culture where she is not treated as an equal teaching leader among men. The stance of the complementation view is still held by many. And while respected, we would feel that holding fast to this view could offer a hurdle for many to see our beautiful Jesus, who delights in the gifts of both his discipled men and women. Some people out there say, "why aren't there any good women (Biblical) teachers out there?" We'd say because, no one will them teach. Bonnie is an exceptional teacher, and available for booking as you may have a need. And were not talking about your cookie decorating, cute, and crafty women's ministry event.
