Podcasts about from genesis

Every person was created to reflect the image and likeness of God. Unfortunately, sin has distorted that reflection and blinded many to their true worth. In part one of “Bearing God's Image,” Duane Sheriff reveals the divine design behind humanity's creation and the incredible value God places on every human life.From Genesis to Colossians, Scripture declares that we are not accidents—we are image bearers of a holy and loving Creator. Sin damages God's image in man, but righteousness through Jesus Christ restores it. Understanding this truth is essential to recovering our God-given dignity in today's confused and broken culture.God's image isn't something we put on—it's who we were created to be!

Welcome to Wellspring Church!What does the Bible really mean when it speaks of curses—and what does Jesus' cross have to do with our freedom from them? In this message, Pastor Billy Waters unpacks how curses work, where they come from, and how God, in His mercy, has provided a way out.From Genesis to Deuteronomy to Galatians, Scripture shows that curses aren't random punishments but the natural outworking of life outside God's blessing. They are spiritual consequences meant to restrain sin and call us back to covenant faithfulness. Yet in Christ, every curse meets its end. Jesus became the curse for us so that the blessing of Abraham might rest on us instead.

From Genesis to Revelation, God’s Word is about Jesus. While this is the case, and has always been the case, it takes help for us to see this.

From Genesis to Revelation, God reveals Himself as our Shepherd — the One who guides, provides, and protects. But in a world full of false shepherds, online voices, and endless noise, how do we stay close to the real One?

Learn how the Holy Spirit speaks, teaches, and reminds us of truth. In this message, Pastor Aaron McRae unpacks the transforming work of the Spirit— who empowers believers to live out the presence and power of God in everyday life.From Genesis to Acts, the Holy Spirit has always been active — giving life, guiding truth, producing unity, and empowering followers of Jesus for mission. When the Spirit fills us, we don't just believe differently; we walk, talk, and act differently.Explore seven key works of the Holy Spirit: Salvation, Wisdom, Unity, Empowering, Gifts, Fruitfulness, and Influence — showing that the Spirit doesn't just inspire worship; He transforms how we live.Whether you've grown up in church or are new to faith, this teaching will help you recognize, welcome, and walk with the Spirit in your daily life.Scriptures Referenced:Genesis 1:2Psalm 104:29–30Ezekiel 36:27Isaiah 11:1–5John 3:5; 7:38–39; 14:25–26; 16:8–15Acts 1:8; 2:4Romans 12:3–81 Corinthians 6:19–20; 12:1–11; 13Galatians 5:22–25Ephesians 1:17–21; 4:2–3; 5:15–18Titus 3:3–7Resources Mentioned:The Familiar Stranger — Tyler StatonForgotten God — Francis ChanThe Pastor — Eugene PetersonThe Knowledge of the Holy — A.W.

From Genesis to today, there's been a war of words—between truth and lies, wisdom and folly, life anddeath. Proverbs calls us to guard our speech because our words reveal our hearts. Only Jesus, the Wordmade flesh, can give us new hearts and make our words instruments of peace.

Pastor Josh reminds us that God's boundaries aren't meant to restrict us but to protect us. From Genesis 1:27 and 1 Corinthians 6:9-10, we see that every person is made in God's image and called to live within His loving design. Whether it's sexuality or any other sin listed in Scripture, these boundaries flow from His love, not control—because real love always has boundaries.

In this evening message, we pause our Genesis series to focus on one of the most vital aspects of the Christian life — prayer. Drawing from Colossians 4:2, this sermon explores what it means to “continue steadfastly in prayer”, emphasising the importance of both personal and corporate prayer.We're reminded that prayer is not an isolated individual act, but a shared expression of relationship with God and one another. From Genesis to Acts, Scripture shows God's people gathering to seek His face — in seasons of waiting, blessing, challenge, and growth.Through this message, we're encouraged to move beyond independence and isolation, and rediscover the power of praying together — for unity, encouragement, and spiritual maturity. Prayer is not a religious duty but a gift of grace — a living conversation with the God who hears, answers, and transforms.

In this soul-stirring episode, Ambassador Elisha delivers a divine revelation on what it truly means to be made in God's image and how to walk in your God-given purpose.

The Gospel of the Skull Crusher | KWR0053 Kingdom War Room Hosts: Dr. Michael K. Lake: Founder, Biblical Life College and Seminary, Scholar-in-Residence, Biblical Life Assembly, Co-Host of the Kingdom Intelligence Briefing, and Best-Selling Author. Dr. Mike Spaulding: Pastor, Lima Calvary Chapel, Host of Dr. Mike Live, aplogetist, and a prolific author. Dr. Corby Shuey: Pastor, Mount Zion Road Church, President-Elect of Biblical Life Seminary, and Christian author. Guest: Joel Richardson is a New York Times bestselling author, filmmaker, and Bible teacher known for his clear and passionate teaching on biblical prophecy, the return of Jesus, and God's redemptive plan for Israel and the nations. Through his books, films, and online content, Joel seeks to equip believers with a grounded, apocalyptic hope rooted in the Scriptures. The Gospel of the Skull Crusher: The Gloriously Good News of God's Plan to Fix Everything is a sweeping journey through the entire biblical story—from Eden to the New Jerusalem—revealing the Messiah as the promised "seed of the woman" who crushes the serpent's head (Genesis 3:15). This book traces the war between the two seeds through every major covenant, prophecy, and hope of Scripture. Combining biblical theology, prophetic insight, and devotional clarity, Joel Richardson unveils how the gospel is not merely about escaping this world, but about God's promise to restore all things through the victorious reign of His Son. To Purchase Book: store.joelstrumpet.com == Description Dr. Michael Lake is joined by Dr. Mike Spaulding, Dr. Corby Shuey, and special guest Joel Richardson (NYT bestselling author, filmmaker, Bible teacher) to unpack Joel's new book, The Gospel of the Skull Crusher: The Glorious Good News of God's Plan for Fixing Everything. From Genesis 3:15 and the "war of the seeds" to Jesus as the Divine Warrior, we explore why the Bible is not just a promise book—it's a war narrative with a guaranteed victory at the Cross, fully manifested at the Lord's return. We tackle the "now and not yet" paradigm, embodied hope and the resurrection, the prophetic centrality of Israel (Abrahamic & Davidic covenants), and why recovering a Hebraic, non-Platonic worldview matters for discipleship, evangelism, and everyday faith. Joel also shares why he crafted a tactile, heirloom-quality book (linen cover, foil, ribbon, full-color art) to help readers slow down, wonder, and worship—plus how to access his ongoing chapter-by-chapter Bible study series.

In this message, Dr. Shea Shrader exposes the danger of almost obedience — being close to God's will but stopping short of full surrender. Using the story of Jacob stopping short of Bethel, this sermon challenges believers to examine where they've settled for comfort instead of completion.From Genesis to Matthew, the message reminds us that partial obedience is still disobedience, and that compromise always comes with a cost. Yet, through God's grace, we can return, be cleansed, and restored to the place of blessing.Don't miss this challenge to go all the way to Bethel — to leave Shechem behind and walk in full obedience to the God who never stops short on us.

In this episode of Wake Up, Look Up, Pastor Zach asks: Are you missing the secret to spiritual growth? Drawing from a Washington Post study showing people are happier in community than alone, he connects this truth to Scripture—reminding us that we were created for relationship. From Genesis to Acts, the Bible shows that faith was never meant to be a solo journey. Pastor Zach challenges listeners to stop trying to grow alone and instead lean into community—because spiritual growth is a team sport.Have an article you'd like Pastor Zach to discuss?

Have you ever caught yourself shrinking back—unsure if your voice, gifts, or calling mattered as much as the guys around you? Maybe you've played small in ministry because you didn't want to come off as too much. Or wondered if being “quiet” and “safe” was your lane because you're a woman? Whew. You're not alone. In this episode, we're trading one of the oldest lies in the book—the idea that women are somehow less in value, voice, or calling—for the truth that God never said that. From Genesis to Jesus, we'll trace God's heart toward His daughters and see that His design has always been equal in worth and distinct in role—image-bearers, co-laborers, and essential to the body of Christ. To help unpack this, Heidi's joined by two powerhouse Bible teachers and authors, Jami Nato (This Must Be the Place) and Amy Seiffert (Your Name Is Daughter). Together, the three dive into: ✨ What the Bible actually says about women starting in the beginning of Genesis ✨ How Jesus treated women—and what that reveals about God's heart ✨ How to confidently live as a daughter of God while linking arms with His sons This isn't a feminist rant or a man-bashing session. It's a freeing conversation about God's good design for both women and men—and how the enemy's been twisting it for far too long. Grab your coffee, your Bible, and maybe your best girlfriend—because today, we're trading the lie of “less than” for the truth of who God says you are.

“You are noble. You have a voice. And it's time to take it back.” In this powerful and deeply prophetic message, Megan Edward calls us to step fully into the identity God has spoken over us: a people of nobility, dignity, and authority. Building on a word from Sandra Sellmer-Kersten — nobility — and revisiting the Hebrew decade of the mouth (5780), we're invited to consider how fear, trauma, and spiritual resistance have tried to silence the voice of the Bride. But no more. From Genesis to Proverbs to Romans, Scripture reminds us that the tongue carries life and death — and God is calling us to speak again. To prophesy again. To declare truth again. Through stories of King George VI and the film The King's Speech, Megan draws a striking parallel: we reclaim our voice as we are healed from past pain and trauma that has shut us down. This is a word for anyone who has felt disqualified, disheartened, or held back. The season has shifted. The church must speak. It's time to stand, take our seat, and release the sound of heaven. “You carry nobility. You carry authority. And your voice matters.”

[DONATE WITH PAYPAL] When a Protestant or non-Catholic wants to join the Catholic Church, they often hit a surprising snag: If they're divorced and remarried, the Church requires an annulment for that first marriage—even if it wasn't Catholic. Why? In this episode, Greg dives into listener questions about this tough scenario, explaining why the Church presumes all marriages valid (Canon Law 1060: “Marriage enjoys the favour of law. Consequently, in doubt the validity of a marriage must be upheld until the contrary is proven.”) and how natural law—God's blueprint in creation—shapes this teaching. From Genesis to Romans, discover how marriage's permanence isn't just a Catholic rule but a universal truth, and why annulments are a path to mercy, not judgment. Donate with PayPal!

Pastor Aaron McRae invites us to step into the story of God's creation — not as distant observers, but as participants in His masterpiece.From “In the beginning…” to “It was very good,” Scripture reveals a God who brings order out of chaos, light out of darkness, and life out of nothing. Humanity, created in His image, is the crown of creation — made for relationship, purpose, and worship.But the story doesn't stop there. Through rebellion came brokenness… and through covenant came redemption. From Genesis to Jesus, we discover that our true identity and purpose are not achieved but received — found only in our Creator.The creation story invites us to discover our true identity and purpose by looking to our Creator, not ourselves, and seeking His will and not just our ways.

Salvation is not a reward for good behavior—it's a gift from a loving Father. From Genesis to Revelation, God's message has been consistent: “I will redeem you.” Adam and Eve's fall introduced sin and separation, but even then, God promised a Redeemer (Genesis 3:15). Humanity could not climb back to heaven; heaven had to come down to us.   Romans 3:23 reminds us, “For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God.” That's the universal truth—our moral efforts could never bridge the gap. Yet in Romans 6:23, we find the contrast of grace: “For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.”   When Christ said, “It is finished” (John 19:30), He declared that the debt was paid in full. No priest, no ritual, no amount of penance can add to the cross. Salvation is not a ladder we climb; it's a door we walk through—opened by Jesus Himself.

What happened to godly masculinity? In this powerful kickoff to the Stand Firm and Act Like Men series, Pastor Joby Martin challenges the cultural narrative and calls men back to their God-given purpose. From Genesis to 1 Corinthians 16:13–14, we see that manhood isn't about muscles, money, or machismo — it's about being a prophet, priest, king, provider, and protector. God designed men to work with purpose, obey with courage, and love with sacrifice. But sin has distorted that calling, leading to passivity, confusion, and brokenness. This message is a wake-up call to rise up, reject the lies, and return to the design of the Creator. If you've ever wondered what it really means to be a man of God, this sermon is for you. “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” – 1 Corinthians 16:13–14

What happens when God's people settle instead of scatter? In Week 3 of Citizens of Heaven, Pastor Steve Garcia explores how the story of the Tower of Babel and the miracle of Pentecost reveal God's unstoppable heart for the nations. From Genesis to Acts, we see that when humanity rebels and tries to make a name for itself, God's mercy still moves the mission forward. If you've ever been tempted to stay in your comfort zone, this message will challenge and inspire you to go where God sends — because His heart is still for the world.  Comment below: What helps you resist settling and stay obedient to God's call?  Take your next step at sunrisechurch.org or text NEXT to 909.281.7797  Subscribe for more messages in the Citizens of Heaven series! #CitizensOfHeaven #SteveGarcia #SunriseChurchCA #Babel #Pentecost #GlobalMission #Acts2 #Genesis11 - NEXT STEPS  Looking to take your next step?  We want to help!

From Genesis, God creates by speaking. In Jesus, God speaks again. His word brings healing, hope, and a finished salvation.

We often ask, “Who's our number one?”—but have you ever wondered what God puts first? In this message, Pastor Doug Gilford unpacks Matthew 6:33, revealing that God's highest priority isn't structures, systems, or success—it's souls. From Genesis to Revelation, God's heart beats for people—for you. Through powerful stories and scripture, Doug reminds us that God's first desire is honor, His deepest longing is relationship, and His greatest pursuit is you. When we understand His priorities, our lives, loves, and values come into alignment. Because if we're God's number one… shouldn't He be ours?

In this revelatory message, The Language of Sight, Pastor Maartin unveils how to truly see in the Spirit. From Genesis to Ephesians, he reveals the divine pattern - God first spoke, then He saw - teaching how revelation transforms your perception from carnal understanding to spiritual sight. Discover the link between light and revelation, the exceeding greatness of His power within you, and the process by which your eyes of understanding are enlightened. This sermon is not just knowledge - it's an impartation that activates spiritual vision.

In this thought-provoking episode, Walton explains his “cultural rivers” metaphor—how each culture swims in its own current of values, assumptions, and logic. We can't read the Bible through modern, Western eyes without missing what mattered most to ancient audiences. Genesis, for example, isn't about material origins but about God bringing order to a disordered world. From Genesis 1–11, which Walton calls a unified pursuit-of-order narrative, to covenant as God's chosen method of establishing order in Israel, this episode reshapes how we think about law, sin, impurity, and even concepts like raʿ (evil). Walton shows how words like shalom, menucha, and tov are all part of a spectrum of order—not morality. He also addresses how Jesus and Paul recontextualize the Torah, why Exodus opens with a surprising parade of female heroes, and how poetry preserves communal memory in songs like Exodus 15. Whether you're new to Walton's “Lost World” series or a longtime reader, this episode offers fresh insight into how Scripture's deepest themes emerge from its ancient context.

There's more to reality than what you can see, touch, or measure. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible assumes an unseen spiritual realm—a world filled with God's purposes, loyal spiritual beings, and very real opposition. But in our modern world, most of us live as if only the physical realm matters. We've lost sight of the bigger story. In this opening message of our new series "Supernatural: Why What You Don't See Matters," Lead Pastor Clay Monkus pulls back the curtain on what Scripture actually teaches about angels and the supernatural world. You'll discover that God's heavenly family has been at work since before humanity was created—and now we're invited into His earthly family mission. This isn't just abstract theology. The unseen realm actively shapes what happens in your life, your struggles, and your purpose. Ignoring it doesn't make it less real. But seeing it clearly? That changes everything about how you walk out your faith. Whether you're skeptical, curious, or somewhere in between, this message will challenge the way you view your everyday battles and open your eyes to the cosmic story you're already part of.

Joseph's career was going along fairly well. He'd risen from servanthood to becoming, in a sense, the Chief Operating Officer of a huge estate. And then sex came. He wasn't even looking for it, but it came at him. Things may be going very well for you, but sex will come—and it's such a powerful force that how you handle it can make or break you. From Genesis 39, we can learn about what we're going to call lust. We learn something from what we see Potiphar's wife doing, we learn something from what we see Joseph doing, and we learn from what we see God doing.  Let's look at 1) how to understand lust, 2) how to handle it, and 3) how to heal it. This sermon was preached by Dr. Timothy Keller at Redeemer Presbyterian Church on March 12, 1995. Series: The Seven Deadly Sins. Scripture: Genesis 39:4-21.

When the seasons shift—especially from the vibrancy of summer to the stillness of fall—it can remind us of life’s own changes: loss, renewal, and waiting. In our daily prayer and devotional, Alicia Searl beautifully points us back to a truth we can depend on no matter what season we’re in: God is always faithful. We often wrestle with questions like, “What does it mean that God is faithful?” or “Am I faithful enough to Him?” But Scripture makes it clear that God’s faithfulness is not dependent on our performance—it’s rooted in His perfect, unchanging character. From Genesis to Revelation, His Word reveals that He never leaves, never breaks His promises, and never wavers in His love for His people. When life feels uncertain, we can look back at the way God has carried His people—Israel delivered from Egypt, the fulfillment of His promises through Jesus, and His ongoing presence through the Holy Spirit. His faithfulness extends from generation to generation (Psalm 100:5). Just as He sustained His people in the past, He will sustain us now. Fall invites us to slow down and reflect—to notice God’s fingerprints in both the falling leaves and the steadfast truth that He never changes. In this season, may we find comfort in His promises and gratitude for His unwavering faithfulness. Today's Bible Reading "Know therefore that the Lord your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commandments." – Deuteronomy 7:9 Key Takeaways God’s faithfulness is a cornerstone of His character—He cannot be anything but faithful. His covenant love continues through generations, no matter our changing circumstances. Remembering God’s past faithfulness strengthens our trust in His future promises. Every season, including the difficult ones, is a reminder of His unbroken presence and care. Let’s Pray Together O God, thank You for being faithful in every season. When my heart grows weary or doubts arise, remind me of Your steadfast love and promises. Help me to see Your hand at work, even when I can’t understand the path ahead. Reveal Your faithfulness to me in new ways this fall, and teach me to rest in the peace of knowing that You never fail. In Jesus’ name, Amen.

What if work wasn't a curse to escape or a ladder to climb? What if it was a form of worship we can offer? In this message, Jonathan Schunker explores the future of work.

From Genesis to Revelation, the story of Scripture is the story of how God became King on earth as in heaven through Jesus. The world has been under the rule of darkness, but Jesus — the King of kings and Lord of lords — came to reclaim dominion, rescue His people, and invite us into His Kingdom.

Send us a textFaith & Doubt 03 — God as Mosaic, Faith as a CreedWhen you stay in the tradition long enough, you realize something unsettling: God doesn't hold still. The moment you think you've got God figured out—a verse, a doctrine, a tidy metaphor—life shifts. A diagnosis, a betrayal, a miracle, a silence. Suddenly, God looks different again.That's what this episode is about. The idea that God is not static. The story of Scripture is a moving picture—God in gardens, God in deserts, God in exile, God in flesh. From Genesis to Revelation, the divine keeps showing up in new and surprising forms. The faithful are always being asked to reorient, to find holiness inside the disorientation.In this third piece of the Faith & Doubt series, I explore how faith was never meant to be a posture of certainty, but of fidelity. Faith as showing up. Faith as staying loyal even when the picture blurs. Because maybe what God wants from us isn't perfect answers—but steady presence.I talk about the danger of cherry-picking only the comforting images of God—the gentle shepherd, the loving father, the still small voice—while ignoring the wilder parts: the fire, the storm, the silence that won't speak. What if the truest picture of God is a mosaic? Jagged, colorful, and whole only when we hold all the pieces together.“If God is a moving target, maybe faith is the willingness to keep aiming.”That's the center of this reflection. That faith is less about having answers and more about staying in the questions. That doubt doesn't make you faithless—it makes you honest. God isn't afraid of your questions; God is in them.If this episode speaks to you, you can read the full essay here on Text & Rock and check out the rest of the Faith & Doubt series for more reflections on belief, deconstruction, and becoming whole again.For Text and Rock Poetry, Podcasts, and Video Content or to contact Mark and Eric, visit us at www.textandrock.com.

In this message, Pastor Matthew Wright unpacks the deep spiritual truth behind that longing — you were made for royalty. From Genesis to Jesus to you, this sermon reveals God's original design: that humanity would rule and reign with Him as partners in His Kingdom. Pastor Wright explores what it really means to rule God's way, the divine purpose of work, and how living with Kingdom perspective transforms everything — from your job to your worship. Through powerful scriptures like Genesis 1–2, Romans 5:17, John 10:10, and 1 Corinthians 3:9, you'll discover that God isn't looking for servants… He's looking for partners.

In Solus Christus – Christ Alone, Aidan Sims reminds us that our salvation rests entirely on the finished work of Jesus, not on anything we can add. Like a rider who must keep their eyes fixed on where they want to go, the Church must keep its gaze on Christ alone, lest we drift toward “Jesus and…”—Jesus and good behavior, and religious observance, and social causes. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture reveals that God's plan of redemption is fulfilled in Jesus—the promised Seed, the true Tabernacle, the eternal King. Fully God and fully man, Christ lived in perfect obedience, bore our sin, and rose to reconcile us to the Father. Through the Spirit, we are united to him so that his story becomes ours—his death our death, his resurrection our life. Salvation is wholly God's work, accomplished by the Son and applied by the Spirit. When we look at ourselves, we see only our unworthiness; but when we look at Christ, we see the unshakable assurance that we cannot be lost.

Lori opens a special three-part series, Regret Meets Redemption, addressing lies that widows, single moms, and even children often believe and how God's attributes dismantle those lies. Today's lie is the belief that we could have done something to keep our children from growing up without their dad. Knowing God as our Redeemer shatters that lie and brings hope.Through Scripture, personal reflection, and encouragement, Lori points listeners to God's character as Redeemer. From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible tells the story of redemption, and this truth brings clarity, comfort, and assurance when the weight of regret presses in.Understanding regret and grief, and learning to discern when natural regret turns into a lie.The sovereignty of God over life and death, with Scripture that confirms our days are set by Him (Job 14:5; Psalm 139:16; 1 Samuel 2:6).Why combating lies with the truth of God's character as our Redeemer is essential, and how redemption brings freedom and peace (Ephesians 1:7; 1 Peter 1:18–19).In this episode, Lori will discuss:Takeaway: Regret may whisper lies, but God's truth speaks louder. Your Redeemer lives—and His truth has the final word.For more information and helpful resources, check our website, PerspectiveMinistries.org, and follow us on Instagram @PerspectiveMinistries.

What does it mean that humanity was made to "have dominion"? In this fourth episode of our Imago Dei series, Greg and Nathan unpack the kingly calling at the heart of being made in God's image. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture paints a royal picture of humanity—not as tyrants or owners, but as vice-regents under the true King. We'll explore how the Bible uses royal language to describe human purpose, how sin has distorted our rule, and how Jesus—our Servant King—restores and redefines our authority through grace. From stewarding the earth to resisting evil and creating beauty, this episode is a deep dive into what it looks like to reign in life the way God intended. Whether you feel powerless or prideful, this episode will remind you: you were made to rule—but only under the rule of Christ. You were made for more than survival—you were made for responsible rulership. Through Christ, we don't grasp at power; we receive grace to serve. Kingship, in God's Kingdom, always looks like love with authority and order shaped by mercy.

From Genesis to Revelation, the Bible whispers of a cosmic battle raging just beyond human sight—a spiritual war that will soon erupt into the physical realm. Angels Eternal: War of the Princes pulls back the curtain on God's Divine Council, revealing the hierarchy of angels, archangels, seraphim, cherubim, and the mysterious nachash—and exposing their ancient enemies: Satan, Semjaza, Azazel, and the demonic legions born from rebellion.

On this episode we explore God's vision of multiplication—not just growth in numbers, but the flourishing and sending of His people. From Genesis to Jesus' call to “Follow me,” we'll see how mission is rooted in God's nature and woven into our everyday lives, transforming ordinary places into Kingdom impact.

In this sermon, Pastor Matthew explores the tension of Jesus as both the Lion of Judah and the Lamb of God. From Genesis to Revelation, Scripture points to a Messiah who embodies both power and sacrifice. In Matthew 21, the people expected Jesus to ride in as a conquering king who would overthrow Rome. Instead, He entered Jerusalem on a donkey in humility and cleansed the temple, confronting hypocrisy and defending His Father's house. Pastor Matthew connects this moment to us today, reminding believers that we are now God's temple. Jesus still flips tables in our hearts—not to shame us, but to free us—fighting for God's glory, His reputation, and our transformation.

Matt Mouzakis returns to the podcast to wrestle with one of the most debated questions in the church: What does Scripture really say about women in ministry? From Genesis to Paul's letters, we unpack how mistranslations, cultural assumptions, and bad theology have sidelined half the Body of Christ for centuries. Was Eve really just Adam's “rib”? Did Paul command women to stay silent in church forever…or was he correcting a local crisis in Ephesus? And what does “headship” actually mean when Paul calls Christ the head of the church? Many of us were taught to see “male headship” as God's design. But what if that's really just the fallout of the Fall? And what if Jesus' Kingdom has already undone that curse?     Spoiler: the resurrection was first preached by women, and that wasn't an accident.  

This week, we’ll hear from two incredible actors—Chrissy Metz, best known for her role on TV’s This Is Us, and Edwina Findley Dickerson, known for her roles on The Wire and Chicago Med. Through their transformative work as actors, they strive not only to compassionately portray their characters, they deeply inhabit them, telling powerful stories with empathy and grace.

It will be God’s time, not mine.” - Chrissy Metz “When people tell you things almost as a fact, you can start to believe it if you don’t have another voice. God told me I was called to entertainment, and I thank God that I leaned into His voice even when other people’s voices seemed louder, because God’s plan is the one that won out.” - Edwina Findley Dickerson “We can end up with what I call the ‘curse of comparison,’ and then we can talk our way out of what God is trying to talk us into.” - Edwina Findley Dickerson “From Genesis to Revelation, we see people who were not considered the smartest, who were not considered the most powerful, who were not considered the most beautiful, but were called for a purpose. If we lean into some of those scriptural examples of people who were not the likely candidate from other people’s point of view, but were exactly who God chose, then I think we can see ourselves in that lineup, and start leaning into our calling.” - Edwina Findley Dickerson “I think like most people, there’s a chasm between what you believe that God has promised you in your life and your current circumstances. A lot of times when God’s promise enters your life, it can speak very differently from your current reality.” - Edwina Findley Dickerson “Sometimes the choices that you make aren’t necessarily about what would come naturally to you—sometimes it’s purely surrendering to what God is calling you to do.” - Edwina Findley Dickerson “If God has called you to do something, do it in obedience, even if you don’t understand how it’s going to end up. You have no idea what kind of blessings are on the other side.” - Edwina Findley Dickerson ________________________ Enjoy watching these additional videos from Jesus Calling YouTube channel!
