Podcasts about Complementarianism

In this episode, Joyce shares her story of involvement in a PCA church in Florida and how her experience of marriage, faith, and community unfolded over more than a decade. She describes the early support her family received, her deep investment in church life, and how that shifted when she began raising concerns about her marriage. Joyce outlines the church's response, her efforts to seek counseling, the process of pursuing divorce, and the consequences that followed, including church discipline. This episode examines how systems designed for accountability can fail those in crisis and how theological frameworks can impact the choices survivors feel they're allowed to make. An update on Joyce's situation is shared at the end of the episode.Support the show

This is another special episode of Your Calvinist Podcast filmed at the 2025 Dangerous Friends Conference in Monclova, Ohio which was put on by ClearTruth Media where Keith interviews Michael Foster, author of Its Good to be a Man. They discuss complementarianism, patriarchy, and dangerous men.

Today, we're exploring the hidden history of women in ministry through the lens of the pastor's wife role. Historian Beth Allison Barr takes us on a journey that challenges everything we think we know about women's leadership in the church. We'll trace how women went from being active leaders in the early Christian church to being systematically pushed out of ministry. Barr reveals how the pastor's wife role evolved from a radical act of Protestant resistance to a complex system that both empowered and constrained women. The conversation digs into some tough terrain - how complementarian theology has created environments where women's ministry is limited, and in some cases, where abuse has been hidden. But it's not just a story of limitation. It's a powerful call for reimagining how men and women can work together in ministry. At its heart, this is a conversation about breaking down barriers, recognizing historical complicity, and creating spaces where all people can fully express their calling - regardless of gender. We'll explore how the Southern Baptist Convention became a flashpoint for these debates, why ordination became a weapon against women's leadership, and most importantly, how we might move forward toward mutual flourishing in church communities. Get ready for a conversation that challenges, enlightens, and offers a hopeful vision for the future of ministry.Beth Allison Barr (PhD, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill) is James Vardaman Endowed Chair of History at Baylor University in Waco, Texas, where she specializes in medieval history, women's history, and church history.

Midweek Podcast: Complementarianism/Egalitarianism Kyle Peart w/Tyler Hurst and Jim Roden March 12, 2025 Journey Church Tucson See more at: https://www.journeyefc.org/

Trad wives. Toxic masculinity. Fourth-wave feminism. The “manosphere.” Egalitarianism. Complementarianism. What do all these terms have in common? They represent ways to view or interpret what it means to be a woman or man. They have helped shape our culture both within and outside of the church. Pastors Megan Marshman and Shawn Williams unpack Genesis 1:26–27, Genesis 2:15–22, and  Ephesians 5 to show the beautiful harmony that can be achieved when tradition and cultural expectations are put in their proper place, and God's vision for manhood and womanhood is elevated.

He explains how Patriarchy is rooted in nature as a fixed and unchanging design, while Complementarianism focuses on flexible and fluid roles. Pastor Dale will discusses how the framework of Complementarianism has contributed to the rise of feminism within the church and broader culture, offering thought-provoking insights into these important theological concepts.

Patriarchy is a power that steals, kills, and destroys. But in the darkness, the Spirit of God hovers, waiting to give birth to new life. Danielle Strickland joins us today to shed light on this critical issue facing the church. Danielle unpacks how patriarchy has deeply distorted our view of God, the scriptures, and the flourishing of men and women together. She shares how this male-centered ordering of the world has undermined women's confidence and value, and how it stands in stark contrast to God's design for mutual flourishing. Yet Danielle also offers hope. She calls us to see the powerful witness of women throughout scripture - from Hagar to Mary Magdalene. And she challenges men to step up, to confront the systems of patriarchy, and to disproportionately invest in empowering women. This is a conversation that gets to the heart of the gospel - a message of life, not death; a vision of mutual empowerment, not domination. Danielle's words have the potential to shift the very culture of the church. So join us. Danielle lets Love lead her to inspire, challenge, provoke and disrupt the present, and to live the future now. Having lived in different cultures and contexts around the world she celebrates diversity and deeply longs for wrong things to be made right. Danielle practises following Jesus daily. This pursuit has led to exciting entrepreneurial exploits (like co-founding multiple charities and non-profits) and a whole host of failures (that we don't as often talk about). All of this has convinced her of the deep need we all have for hope, faith, and love. Her deepest longing is to demonstrate what living that boundless life looks like.Danielle has written six books (the latest is The Other Side of Hope), has a podcast called The Right Side Up (which recently celebrated half-a-million downloads), and speaks to people at events all over the world. Danielle leads Boundless Communications Inc. which launches creative exploits like Women Speakers Collective (liberating voices of women around the globe), IMBY (a tiny home movement IN MY BACKYARD), Brave Global (preventing human trafficking), Infinitum (a way of living deeply), and Hagar's Voice (support and advocacy for survivors of abuse). Danielle lives in Vancouver, Canada with her three sons and husband Steve. Danielle loves getting outside, doing new things, physical adventures, and she can't seem to turn down a free lunch.Danielle's Book:Need to KnowDanielle's Recommendations:The PowerJoin Our Patreon for Early Access and More: PatreonConnect with Joshua: jjohnson@allnations.usGo to www.shiftingculturepodcast.com to interact and donate.

In this week's episode, Lee is joined by Jeff Hollis, Caroline Sasnett, and Joel Sasnett to discuss complementarianism, egalitarianism, and trends seen in our culture that impact leadership in the local church and in our homes. While not a primary matter of church belief - like salvation is found in Christ alone - we believe complementary (counterpart) roles of men and women in the local church is Biblical and critical for the overall health of the Church.

Complementarianism doesn't mean inequality, and egalitarianism isn't necessarily the solution. Join us on Calibrate Conversations as we explore the often controversial terrain of gender roles and biblical sexuality, with a spotlight on the thought-provoking podcast "Sons of Patriarchy." This episode will challenge your understanding of patriarchy, and the contentious figure of Doug Wilson, a pastor known for his polarizing views. As we prepare for the heated debates likely to arise from this podcast, we urge listeners to consider the complexities and biases inherent in these discussions.Our conversation navigates the tension between complementarian and egalitarian beliefs within Christian relationships, dissecting misconceptions and misapplications that have led to misunderstandings and allegations of abuse. We argue for a scripturally grounded approach that promotes accountability and mutual respect in marriages, cautioning against extreme interpretations on either side. By examining the role of church leadership in fostering healthy relationships, we aim to inspire a balanced, respectful dialogue that upholds the dignity and worth of both spouses. Tune in for a thought-provoking journey through the intersection of Christianity, theology, culture, and personal relationships.Join us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality! Chapters(00:19) - Exploring Gender Roles and Biblical Sexuality(09:35) - Gender Roles in Christian Relationships(14:41) - Navigating Gender Roles and Church CultureOther ways to listen:https://linktr.ee/calibrateconversations#DougWilson #complementarianism #egalitarianism

(We read all of them)In this episode of Faithful Politics, Will Wright and Josh Burtram engage in a thought-provoking conversation with Amanda Clark, a pastor at Branches Vineyard Church. The discussion dives into Amanda's journey as a woman in ministry, navigating her calling within the context of a complementarian background. Amanda shares how her early desire to serve Jesus as a missionary eventually evolved into pastoral leadership, despite the challenges posed by conservative views on women in ministry.Throughout the episode, Amanda reflects on the barriers female pastors often face, such as the societal awkwardness and traditional rules against male and female leaders meeting privately. She also touches on the support she received from key mentors, her theological journey in seminary, and how she reconciled her beliefs with the Bible's teachings on women in leadership.The conversation expands into broader issues affecting the church today, including political polarization, social justice, and the role of discipleship in church growth. Amanda emphasizes the importance of balancing leadership growth with the spiritual development of congregants, avoiding the pitfalls of the church growth model that prioritizes numbers over genuine spiritual depth.This episode also explores Amanda's personal experiences as a lead pastor in a rural, predominantly conservative area. She candidly discusses the challenges of being perceived as too progressive by some, while also attracting those who value her inclusive approach to ministry. Finally, Amanda offers insights on how pastors can stay grounded in their core convictions, resisting the temptation to cater to popular opinion at the expense of their beliefs.It's a powerful discussion about leadership, faith, and the evolving role of women in the church.

Can a marriage serve as a cure for deep-seated sexual sin? Join us as we tackle this provocative question by scrutinizing the controversial theology of Doug Wilson, founder of Christ Church in Moscow, Idaho. We dissect Wilson's troubling views on marriage and gender roles, such as his belief that women should be controlled by their fathers until marriage and that they should avoid questioning their relationships. Balancing this, we advocate for a healthier complementarian approach that champions mutual respect and communication. Additionally, we broaden our discussion to examine how these issues relate to broader theological concerns, including same-sex attraction and marriage, promoting equality and respect in all relationships.Moreover, we unravel the flawed notion that marriage can fix sexual sin through a heartbreaking case where Wilson arranged a marriage for a man with a history of sexual abuse. Personal anecdotes and critical analysis reveal the dangers of expecting a spouse to heal profound personal issues. Highlighting the necessity of genuine repentance and transformation before entering marriage, we emphasize the vital role of discipleship and sanctification in true healing. Listen as we advocate for marriages rooted in self-giving love, accountability, and heart-level ministry, challenging harmful beliefs and encouraging a healthier, Christ-centered approach to sexuality and relationships.TIMESTAMPS:(00:16) Unraveling Doug Wilson's Controversial Theology(09:50) Expecting Marriage to Cure Sexual Sin(15:23) Transforming Sexuality Through Discipleship and SanctificationJoin us weekly as we strive help people embrace God's standard for sexuality! Other ways to listen:https://linktr.ee/calibrateconversations#DougWilson #Theology #Abuse #Christianity #DouglasWilson

Author and Pastor Zachary Garris talks about the problem of the feminization of the Evangelical Church and the need to recover the masculine nature of Biblical Christianity. We discuss some compromises of Complementarianism, how feminism crept into the church and how God's design for the sexes extends beyond just the home and church. Complementarianism, which started off as a movement with good intentions to preserve the distinction of gender roles in response to Evangelical Feminism in the 1980s fell short in many ways of the older, more Biblical understanding of Patriarchy. We also tease out some of the related problems with Radical Two Kingdoms Theology (R2K) and how it may be symptomatic or a contributing cause of the feminization of the church. Lastly, we touch on some issues of cultural engagement and political theory. Buy the book -

Some verses are hard to understand. In I Corinthians 14:34 Paul writes that “Women should keep silent in the churches.” What does Paul mean in this verse and how does it relate to I Corinthians 11:5 where Paul seems to approve of women praying and prophesying? In this message we will take a deep dive into two different ways to interpret these verses and consider how we might apply what we learn to the service.

Were headship and submission a part of God's good plan for husbands and wives before the fall or are they actually the result of sin? If they were a part of God's good plan then how is it fair that husbands get the role of headship while wives are called to submit? These are just a few of the questions we will consider as we try and discern the roles that God has called both men and women to play in the home.

| SUMMARY - Nancy Pearcey Explains The Toxic War on Masculinity |  TIP JAR: https://donate.stripe.com/aEUdUE5YodhZgkUeUV  In this episode of Dare to Think, Kerry Baldwin interviews Professor Nancy Pearcey about her book, The Toxic War on Masculinity. This book is not intended to take sides in cultural-religious debate between Complementarianism and Egalitarianism. Instead, Pearcey examines a socio-historical perspective of the phenomenon known as "toxic masculinity" and whether Christianity or secularism is responsible for it. Pearcey finds a number of surprising examples throughout history, and also today from prominent sociological and psychological marriage researchers. Pearcey's book is more of an academic apologetic written for educated layman, instead of a popular piece.  Join me, Kerry Baldwin, with Nancy Pearcey, as we Dare to Think about the Toxic War on Masculinity Read my review of Pearcey's book at https://mereliberty.com/041    | MAIN POINTS OF DISCUSSION | 00:00 Introduction 01:20 What is the main problem the book is trying to solve? 04:47 What has been the cause for controversy surrounding the book? 09:01 The "Good" man versus "Real" man scripts 12:13 The "Andrew Tate" phenomenon of masculinity & classical Christian schools 14:09 How Christian men are absorbing the secular ("real man") script 15:02 Research for Christian men splits into two different groups: devout versus nominal 17:22 Brad Wilcox on Christian marriages 19:57 Nominal Christian men marriage and divorce stats 21:47 Percentage of nominal to devout Christian men is 50/50 23:24 Fatherless boyhood: a problem of no-fault divorce or Industrialization? 25:23 How did we lose involved fathers? 27:50 Is there a way to flex the workplace so fathers are no longer absent from the family? 29:02 The impact of fatherlessness hits boys harder than girls 30:24 The impact of father substitutes 31:44 How the 1950s model of the household cant possibly be the Biblical ideal 33:28 Closing   | RESOURCE LINKS | Follow Nancy Pearcey on Social Media https://twitter.com/NancyRPearcey https://www.facebook.com/NancyRPearceyAuthor Visit Nancy Pearcey's Website and purchase her book!

Here is Part 1 in our multi-part interview of joyful South African Pastor Terran Williams, author of How God Sees Women, The End of Patriarchy.Terran was an avid surfer who came from a divorced family, and a gay father who was one of the first to die of AIDS. Invited to a surfer camp that was a ministry outreach he heard the Good News of life in Christ and gave his heart to Jesus. Instantly he wanted to tell others this same Good News and he has been doing so ever since!How did he become a pastor of a very large church? How did he take on the challenge to prove women should be kept out of ministry but saw the error of this view? How did his realization cost him his pastorate? What did he put in his book How God Sees Women, the End of Patriarchy.All this and more as we launch into Season 14 of The Eden Podcast on audio and on the Tru316 YouTube Channel!

Currently, he consults with churches worldwide, presents at conferences and training events, and supervises a team of liaisons who help churches navigate the complexities of domestic abuse. Dan and his wife, Shannon, live in Georgia and have five daughters, two sons-in-law, and three grandsons.LINK https://www.calledtopeace.org/who-we-help/churches/

Todd and Andrew welcome back Taylor Turkington to the podcast for a conversation about the necessity of equipping women for ministry. They think through why some complementarian pastors have been hesitant to encourage the women in their churches to get theological training, whether women are better than men at teaching women, and how the church can do a better job encouraging women to be theologically trained.Taylor is the director of BibleEquipping, an organization that supports women who follow Jesus to study the Bible and teach it to those around them. 

In this episode of Priscilla Talk, the hosts interview Claire Smith, author of God's Good Design, and discuss the biblical texts on Complementarianism and why God's design is good for women.
