What unique challenges do women face in ministry leadership—and what gives them hope for the future of the church? In this special roundtable episode of the Future Christian Podcast, host Loren Richmond Jr. welcomes a panel of seasoned clergy leaders: Rev. Tabatha Johnson (Disciples of Christ), The Venerable Sheila Van Zandwyck (Anglican), Rev. Canon Katherine Morgan (Anglican), and Rev. Canon Martha Tatarnic (Anglican and Future Christian co-host). Together, they share candid stories about their call to ministry, navigating representation and authority, the sacrifices women often make that men may not, and how mentors and allies have helped along the way. From maternity leave struggles to stereotypes about “what a minister should look like,” these leaders open up about both progress and persistent challenges for women in the church today. Listeners will gain insights into: How women discern and embrace a call to ordained ministry. The “stained glass ceiling” and ongoing equity issues in church leadership. The importance of mentors, representation, and visible role models. How congregations respond differently to women clergy across traditions. What gives hope for the next generation of women entering ministry. Whether you're a pastor, church leader, or layperson passionate about equality in the church, this episode offers wisdom, encouragement, and a vision for a more inclusive future. Rev. Tabatha D. Johnson is a pastor in the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). She has served as a pastor and chaplain for over twenty years. She graduated from the University of Missouri-Kansas City and Central Baptist Theological Seminary and is co-editor and contributor to Still A Mother: Journeys Through Perinatal Bereavement (Judson Press.) a 2017 Gold Medal Winner in the Illumination Book Awards. She is currently the Senior Pastor at Shawnee Community Christian Church where she joyfully serves alongside people who love Jesus and one another. Tabatha's greatest love, besides her family and her church, are coffee and starting home improvement projects in her home that someday, hopefully, she will finish. Tabatha lives with her spouse, Cory, and their children in the Kansas City Metro. The Venerable Sheila Van Zandwyk is Archdeacon of Lincoln Deanery and Rector of Church of the Transfiguration. She was born and raised in St. Catharines and was raised in the Christian Reformed Church. She began attending an Anglican Church in my twenties. Until starting seminary at 40, Van Zandwyk worked in retail, for a number of years as the Manager of a Shoppers Drug Mart. Ordained for 17 years, Van Zandwyk has worked in churches in Oakville, Hamilton and now St. Catharines, being at Transfiguration for 6 years now. The Reverend Canon Katherine Morgan graduated with a Master of Divinity from Trinity College, University of Toronto. Morgan is ordained in the Diocese of Niagara where she had the privilege of serving in rural, small town and city parishes for 29 years. Currently Morgan is the rector of Church of the Resurrection in Hamilton. In her free time, she loves to sing, enjoy puzzles, and is the proud parent of an adult son. Mentioned Resources:

In this episode, we wrap up our series on common grace with Dr. Andrew Compton, Rev. Steve Swets, and Dr. J. Mark Beach. They begin by revisiting the controversial 1924 debate that split the Christian Reformed Church and discuss Emeritus Professor at Calvin Theological Seminary John Bolt's recent analysis that questions whether this division was truly necessary. They'll also explore how common grace applies to our everyday lives as Christians. How does this doctrine help us navigate cultural engagement, education, politics, and our work lives while maintaining our distinct Christian identity? So, whether you're wrestling with how to live faithfully "in but not of" our increasingly secular world or just curious about balancing theological principles with practical realities, you'll find plenty to reflect on in today's conversation.

This episode looks into the historical 1924 controversy over "common grace" that led to the formation of the Protestant Reformed Church. Our hosts explore how Abraham Kuyper's theological concepts, brought from the Netherlands to America, sparked significant debate within the Christian Reformed Church. They examine the three points of common grace adopted by the CRC Synod of Kalamazoo and why figures like Herman Hoeksema rejected these principles. The conversation touches on the theological nuances between different Dutch terms for grace, the complex relationship between common grace and antithesis, and how these concepts have been applied (and sometimes misapplied) in engaging with culture and scholarship over the past century.

In both the Christian Reformed Church and the broader church today, there is a shortage of faithful pastors. For a multitude of reasons, many pastors have been leaving the ministry in recent years and less young people have heeded the call. So in this week's episode we want to dig into what's going on and, more importantly, we want to help listeners consider what it means for them - or someone they know - to be called by God to be a minister of the gospel. Regardless of whether you sense a call or not, this is an extremely practical discussion for Christians everywhere.
