This is Part 2 of Carolyn Custis James' insights into misread passages on key men and women. The focus is on Deborah, Jael, Barak, Judah and Tamar. Carolyn says: Patriarchy is not the Bible's message. It's the backdrop. The men in these Bible stories weren't following what men are "supposed to do." Instead they were embodying Jesus.

Join Stasi as she unpacks the book of Ruth, highlighting Naomi as well as the treasured characteristic of God's hesed. Stories like Naomi's help us be honest with God about our own lament. Even in our deepest suffering, we are always seen, loved, and held, and our faithful God promises that He will never turn His face away. In fact, we can trust that even when we don't see or understand, our God is always working on our behalf. He invites us to trust Him and to rest in His loyal love for us no matter how our story seems to be unfolding. Jesus is the great Hero of every story, including our own, and we can trust that our story has a very good ending.…..SHOW NOTES:…..VERSES: Ruth 1:13 (NIV) — “…It is more bitter for me than for you, because the Lord's hand has turned against me!”Ruth 1:8 (NIV) — Then Naomi said to her two daughters-in-law, “Go back, each of you, to your mother's home. May the Lord show you kindness, as you have shown kindness to your dead husbands and to me. Ruth 1:16 (NIV) — But Ruth replied, “Don't urge me to leave you or to turn back from you. Where you go I will go, and where you stay I will stay. Your people will be my people and your God my God. Hebrews 13:5 (NIV) — …because God has said, “Never will I leave you; never will I forsake you.”Romans 8:28 (NIV) — And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.…..OTHER RESOURCES:Finding God in the Margins: The Book of Ruth by Carolyn Custis James  https://amzn.to/44JKKf5…..Don't Miss Out on the Next Episode – Subscribe for FreeSubscribe using your favorite podcast app:Spotify Podcasts – https://spoti.fi/42SsOipApple Podcasts – https://apple.co/42E0oZ1 Google Podcasts – http://wahe.art/3M81kxLAmazon Music & Audible – https://amzn.to/3M9u6hJ

During this episode, host Margaret Mary is intrigued to learn the process, and response, to Carolyn's book, Malestrom: How Jesus Dismantles Patriarchy and Redefines Manhood. Digging deeply into the stories of men in the Bible who subverted cultural hierarchies, Carolyn Custis James shares how countercultural God's design for men really is.

We've all heard about "Biblical manhood." There are different iterations of it, but in our culture manhood seems to center around being a tough leader who protects and provides. But is that the kind of masculinity that Jesus demonstrated? And exactly what did God have in mind when he created men? On this episode of Faith and Feminism, I get the opportunity to interview Carolyn Custis James on her book, Malestrom: Manhood Swept into the Current of a Changing World. "Biblical Manhood" as you've been taught may not be what God intended.

Years ago I read the book "The Gospel of Ruth" and was blown away by how good of a study it was on an often-misread or overlooked book tucked away in the Hebrew Bible.

  Carolyn Custis James is an important voice for women especially in the evangelical church. I highly recommend all her books. A number of years ago she wrote a book titled Malestrom, a play on the word maelstrom. In this book she was talking about men and how they are also harmed...

Join Leah & Te'Sheba as they chat with Carolyn Custis James about womanhood. 

Ruth 3 As we enter the third chapter of Ruth, we encounter more bold and daring examples of hesed (“unfailing love to the helpless”) that, at first glance, appear dangerous and deceptive—a midnight encounter on the threshing floor that is loaded with sexual overtones and double meanings. Warning bells go off—“Parents Be Warned: Mature Subject Matter.” True, the scene is riddled with sexual tension, but I believe we need to teach our children how God's people are perpetually confronted with difficult situations and hard choices and how they must decide whether they will be guided by self-interest or hesed. The choices made by Naomi, Ruth and Boaz are exemplary and compel us to constantly re-negotiate the complexities of moral decision making in a world where everyone is in some way threatened or compromised. Carolyn Custis James suggests that this is “one of the most powerful gospel encounters between two people in all of Scripture.” I believe it also gives a radical understanding to what it means “submit to one another out of reverence for Christ” (Eph 5:21).

Stephen Boyd, Professor of Religion and Public Engagement at Wake Forest, specializes in the history of Christianity and Christian thought, gender studies, and religion and public life. He's authored multiple books on masculinity and what it means to be a man, and today we'll be digging into his best-selling Christian book, The Men We Long To Be. In this book, Stephen argues that our patriarchal system socializes and conditions our men to become, what he calls, lonely warriors and desperate lovers.

I have spent years studying the issue of masculinity in America. I have concluded that much of what we are taught is cultural, not biblical. Today let's go back to Jesus and ask him what it means to be a man who follows after you. How does your life help us understand what it means to be a real man? Join me as we discuss these issues with Carolyn Custis James.

The book of Ruth is often miscast as the Bible's version of a "Christian romance story," which significantly reduces its meaning and power.

There are so many amazing stories about women in the Bible, but often, they are left behind or forgotten. Today on the podcast, I speak with Carolyn Custis James. She is an author of seven books, six of which specifically discuss the role of women within the Word and our world. Some of her books include Finding God in the Margins, which is about the book of Ruth and looking at Ruth from a female perspective. She wrote Malestrom: Manhood Swept into the Currents of a Changing World, which became Christianity Today's Book of the Year in 2016. Some of her other wonderful books include Half the Church: Recapturing God's Global Vision for Women, Understanding Purpose, Lost Women of the Bible, and When Life and Beliefs Collide: How Knowing God Makes a Difference. Carolyn is a faculty member at Missio Seminary. She is a consultant and editor for Zondervan Exegetical Commentary on the New Testament, and she was named in 2013 by Christianity Today as one of the 50 Evangelical Women to Watch. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation with her, and I hope you will too. Learn More at www.inesfranklin.com

J.R. is excited to announce something that he has been passionately working on the last few months called the Hall of Tyrannus Initiative. In short the vision is “To fund the entire education for 100 pastors at Bible schools/seminaries in poor countries and regions of the world that are hostile to Christianity”. To get involved and for more information on the Hall of Tyrannus Initiative (HTI) check out www.kairospartnerships.org/hti.Our interview today is a heavy yet significant conversation with Carolyn Custis James about the #MeToo / #ChurchToo crisis. Some of us have heard about it and are not sure exactly what it is and how it impacts the Church universal and our local churches. We understand that this conversation scratches the surface of such a large and important topic, so Carolyn was kind enough to share a recent seminar that she led at Missio Seminary for the MMP listeners for an amazing price. Check it out below. Resources: 
Confronting the #MeToo / #ChurchToo Crisis SeminarThis seminar examines the crisis from multiple angles for pastors and ministry leaders. How does church teaching about women and men create an environment that is conducive to sexual abuse and to the protection of perpetrators? How do #MeToo narratives in the Bible provide a vital pastoral resource for raising awareness and creating safety for victims to find help and the care they need? Trauma counseling, legal, and pastoral experts will provide crucial guidance to church leaders in securing professional and legal help, avoiding common mistakes when allegations surface, and becoming leaders in combating this serious crisis.

A short, accessible resource with excellent cultural background information is Finding God in the Margins by Carolyn Custis James. Listeners should also check out the chapter on Ruth in A Biblical-Theological Introduction to the Old Testament: The Gospel Promised. Commentaries on Ruth are often combined with commentaries on Judges, as is the case in the Tyndale Old Testament, New American, and NIV Application commentary series. Listeners wanting to go deeper into the theological, literary, and historical aspects of the book should check those volumes out, as well as the commentary by Robert L. Hubbard Jr. in the New International Commentary series. As always, the Bible Project video on Ruth is helpful: https://youtu.be/0h1eoBeR4Jk

The future is female.✨ . . Have you heard this phrase before? In 2019, you’ve likely heard it A LOT. Women are standing their ground, taking their place, leaning into their callings, and believing that their contribution to society and the kingdom is absolutely necessary. And although we support women taking their place with with confidence and conviction, we believe that the future isn’t JUST female; the future is male AND female. Kelli Masters talks about this same idea and why it’s important to work together with our brother’s in Christ. She eloquently told us that she believes the future involves men and women working together to achieve a goal. We couldn’t agree more. Kelli is poised, articulate, and grounded in the work she’s doing. We are humbled that she’d share her story and insight with us. Our HQ team expounds on what Kelli’s story meant to them and why her message is valuable to all women serving anywhere in any capacity.  Recognized as one of the most influential women in sports business, Kelli Masters often hears, "You have a DREAM JOB." But she chooses to inspire others not with her successes, but with her vulnerability, sharing not only the victories but also the battles and failures along the way. Kelli is an attorney, an NFL sports agent and Founder and President of KMM Sports, a full-service sports management company based in Oklahoma City. Kelli has represented more professional athletes than any woman in the industry, having served as agent/contract advisor to players in every NFL draft since 2006 as well as numerous athletes in the MLB draft and the Olympics. In 2010, she made history as the first woman to represent a Top 5 pick in the NFL Draft (#3 overall). Her story of progress through pain was featured as part of Motrin's national "Women in Progress" campaign in 2017. Kelli is a former National and World Champion baton twirler, and was also Miss Oklahoma 1997, winning awards for talent and community service at the Miss America pageant that year. Currently, Kelli serves as an Adjunct Professor at Oklahoma City University and Oklahoma Christian University, teaching Sports Law. She is a sought-after writer and speaker on topics of sports and nonprofit as well as leadership, diversity and discovering purpose in life.

We've all heard about "Biblical manhood." There are different iterations of it, but in our culture manhood seems to center around being a tough leader who protects and provides. But is that the kind of masculinity that Jesus demonstrated? And exactly what did God have in mind when he created men? On this episode of Faith and Feminism, I get the opportunity to interview Carolyn Custis James on her book, Malestrom: Manhood Swept into the Current of a Changing World. "Biblical Manhood" as you've been taught may not be what God intended.

In this study we take a look at the weak translation from Hebrew to English that results in the woman being a "help mate." Informed by the work of Carolyn Custis James's book, "Half the Church: Recapturing God's Global Vision for Women," we look at the Hebrew usage of "Ezer-Kenegdo," and how it informs our proper understanding of how the first woman is described in Genesis 2. We are challenged to embrace women co-laborers in life on mission.If you have questions about this study or questions about our ministry in general feel free to drop a note at gringlishfellowship@gmail.comIf you'd like to make a contribution to help fund the podcast and/or our work with GO Ministries, you may do so at www.gomin.org/rogersSupport the show (https://gomin.org/rogers/)

On Win's Women of Wisdom today, Best-Selling Author, Win Kelly Charles welcomes Jory Micah. Jory a dreamer. Years ago Jory had a dream that she believe was from God, but she did not fully understand it until she began this blog in 2014. Jory is working on her first book right now and she will share all the details of this dream in the first chapter, but what she want you to know is that if you are a woman who has felt limited or oppressed by the Christian Church in anyway, YOU were in my dream and there is freedom for you. There is something deeply profound happening in the spiritual realm at this very moment. It is difficult to see because of how the Church has wounded our souls as women and men, but we must remember that we wage not against flesh and blood, but against the enemy of the unseen world. The body of Christ will thrive as daughters and sons of God once again, fully equal in both worth & authority, but we must be brave enough to buck against a broken system. God is forming an army of both women and men who are no longer blind and see clearly the damage that patriarchy has caused the body of Christ. Most of us are not typical soldiers, we tremble in fear, we are weary from past battles, doubt our own intelligence and abilities; however, this is precisely why God has chosen us to fight and we can rest assured that we will win this battle. God always chooses people who others deem as foolish to confound the wise and small soldiers to take down massive giants. No doubt, patriarchy in the Christian Church is a beast and won’t go down easily, but if God is for us who can be against us? Jory wholeheartedly believe that the Bible is the written Word of God and should hold the final authority in every Christian’s life, but she believe many humans have misinterpreted the message of the Bible concerning women. As author Carolyn Custis James puts it, “Patriarchy is not the Bible’s message. Patriarchy is the backdrop to the Bible’s message.” Patriarchy is a result of the fall of mankind (Genesis 3:16) and Jesus came to earth to set us free from the consequences of the fall. Jory’s top mission is to help women shake off the chains of limitation and the shackles of oppression that the Christian Church has wrapped around them in the name of the Bible and stale religion. Her goal is to see women universally embraced as church leaders – elders, lead-pastors, evangelists, Bible-teachers, apostles, worship leaders, and every leadership position that both lay women and ordained ministers can dream up with God. Jory is also advocating for women to be given equal authority in their homes, as she believe Christ promoted gender equality. Essentially, Jory is campaigning for Christian women to be given “equal opportunity” to lead in the Church and the home, as sh believe this is the Will of God and what the Bible teaches when read in proper context. When Jory is not smashing patriarchy, she also enjoy writing Christian responses to current events, advocating for social justice and inspiring people to know Jesus more deeply.  As a part of Jory’s ministry here online, she want to give a variety of Christian women and men a platform. She want to make it clear, however, that she do not necessarily agree with all of their stances on Scripture and Christian Ethics. Jory do respect their opinions and feel we can gain insight from those who may differ from ourselves. Jory is always leery of listing personal achievements, but her mom has told her that she must. Jory was named as one of the top 10 female bloggers by the 5th highest ranking blog in the Christian industry, “Beyond Evangelical” – the personal blog of Frank Viola.
