Thoroughly Equipped S.2 Ep.32 What is Critical Race Theory? What does it teach? Should Critical Race Theory be used as an analytical tool? And is this theory something you should worry about? In this episode I interview Andrew Rappaport from the Rapp Report to tackle these questions. Before we dive into the Be the Bridge ministry and other racial reconciliation ministries promoted at the IF:Gathering, we need to lay the ground work and look at the presuppositions that come with Critical Race Theory. This way when we look at these ministries and what they claim and teach, we will see how they incorporate CRT as an analytical tool and assume certain things in regards to racism and white superiority. If we get the problem wrong, the solution will be wrong. If we misdiagnose the problem there will be no reconciliation. So will incorporating Critical Race Theory as an analytical tool help the church with racial reconciliation? Does it accurately diagnose the problem?

I recently attended the IF: Gathering and had the privilege of worshiping through music with the amazing Christy Nockels. I've always been a huge fan of her music, but in recent days I'm an even bigger fan of her heart for the Lord.   Today is super fun because we get a glimpse into the creative process behind her latest album, This is the Hour. She talks about coming to a place of complete exhaustion and how the Lord spoke rest into her life. We even have a super honest discussion about yelling at God when it feels as if life has become too much.    I can't wait for you to hear this amazing conversation because I know you're going to love Christy as much as I do!   Resources from today's show:  Christy Nockels new album Christy Nockels podcast  Adventures in Odyssey Classical Conversations

Jennie Allen is a Bible teacher, New York Times bestselling author, and the founder + visionary of IF:Gathering. She is married to Zac Allen and they are the parents to four wonderful young adult and adolescent children  Kate, Conner, Cooper and Caroline. Jennie has a heart and a passion for this generation of women. She believes in helping women to love God more every day, to see Him for who He is through His Word and to help women learn to give Him away as they meet the people around them. Her life and her work testify to this mission that she lives out with such urgency.In this episode, Jennie Allen sits down with our friend, Hannah Brencher, to have a discussion around Psalm 23:2 and this biblical principle of rest. Throughout the conversation Jennie gracefully uncovers how God helped her understand rest by realizing that it had little to do with ceasing, but truly meant learning to trust and abide in Him. The idea of rest can often be one that we as women often reject but Jennie helps us see the invitation and leadership of God to release us from work and striving. We pray that we can all receive this encouragement today, to trust and abide in the Father.

What’s going on in Christendom these days? Find out in this episode of “The Pew!” We call it The Pew not only because it will bear a slight resemblance to The View, but because it's sort of like our view from the church pew on these thought-provoking headline stories.

Stephanie welcomes Vivian Mabuni for a heart-to-heart conversation about God, passion for Jesus, and an all-out life of surrender to His plan and goodness. As He invites us into a new year, how would He have us depend on Him this year? What does it mean to have “open hands and a willing heart” (the title of her book)? Vivian is an Asian American Christian woman, wife, mom, and cancer survivor. Just like Stephanie, her different worlds influence who she is, how she leads, and the way she connects with God and others. We know that the center of God's will is the best place to be, but surrender is easier said than done. A host of hurdles, from busyness and bitterness to complacency and control, can prevent us from moving where He directs. As we cross over to 2023, Vivian Mabuni provides an authentic look at what it means to willingly risk saying yes to whatever God asks--and highlights a practical path to the deeper joy of a yielded life. Vivian and Stephanie also discuss living at the intersection of Scripture and culture, and how our culture influences our experience of Scripture, as well as how discovering cultures outside the European/Western circle will open up your eyes to the culture of Scripture and of Jesus Himself! MORE ABOUT VIVIAN MABUNI Vivian Mabuni is a national speaker, author, bible teacher and podcast host. Her writing has appeared in Christianity Today, SheReadsTruth, Our Daily Bread, Propel Sophia and her teachings have been featured on the YouVersion Bible App's “Verse of the Day”.

Let's talk about your brain. It processes 70,000 thoughts every day using 100 billion neurons. All of this forms the basis for every memory, thought, and feeling—in other words, your entire life experience. But did you know that most of these thoughts are both negative and repetitive? No wonder we sometimes feel stuck. The good news is that you have the power to rewire and adapt your brain to have a new outlook. Jenny Allen, author, Christian teacher, and founder of IF:Gathering, explains the three lies we easily believe and how to reclaim the power to change your life.

I am so glad that we get to share this conversation with you. I sat down and talked to Justin Giboney last Spring for a breakout at the IF: Gathering. Our talk was so good I asked them if I could share it with you all and they said YES!Living with Compassion and ConvictionIn an extremely divisive world, what if there was a “third way” that would show the world God's heart for humanity? What if our greatest evangelical tool was how we responded to today's cultural issues with grace, love, and truth? Join Justin Giboney, founder of the AND Campaign, and Jamie Ivey, as they discuss how to live with conviction and lead with compassion. 

Thoroughly Equipped S.2 Ep. 13 In this episode we are critiquing the last session of the 2020 IF:Gathering conference where Jennie Allen had each of the speakers present a message on a portion of Romans 8. Sadie Robertson-Huff was given Rom. 8:39 to give a message on. Topics include: Looking over Romans 8:31-39 in context Will Sadie's message change the hearts of these women? Looking at John 21 Does the charcoal fire recorded in John 21 have anything to do with "remembering our past" as we meet with God? Can we miss out on what God's doing in our life if we "turn" to observe what God is doing in other people's lives? Do our testimonies have the power to raise the dead to life? May this episode bless you and bring glory to God For the transcript or to email me go to: The Thoroughly Equipped Woman Other resources: Striving for Eternity Christian Podcast Community 

Thoroughly Equipped S.2 Ep.12 Continuing our critique on the very popular women's conference the IF:Gathering. In this episode we will critique a message given by Ann Voskamp on Romans 8:32. Topics in this episode: What does Paul mean by God "not sparing his Son" in Rom 8:32? What does Paul mean by "all things" Rom. 8:32? Is Jesus the "Way Maker" What does Scripture mean when Jesus says "I am the way, the truth, and the life"? Is God's love lavish and wasteful? Is God "like a mother" who wants to smother you with kisses? Is repentance merely "accepting that you are accepted"? May this episode bless you and bring glory to God!

Episode 100….finally! We're sorry for the hiatus. It was mostly my (Anthony's) fault. I was pulling 60+ hour weeks for a 7-week Finance class for my MBA (and another class besides that) and just did not have the time or energy to devote to podcasting. Thank the Lord I got an ‘A' in both classes. Anyway, long overdue, and with great apologies, is Episode 100, our interview with Melba Toast, host of the Thoroughly Equipped podcast to discuss her deep-dive series on The IF Gathering conference.

Thoroughly Equipped S.2 Ep.11 Continuing our IF:Gathering critique series, we are looking at the way these popular speakers handle the Scripture at the conference. Bianca Juarez Olthoff was given Romans 8:31-37 to teach on. Topics included in this episode: What is Romans 8:31-37 all about? What does Paul mean by "we are more than conquerors"? How are we more than conquerors? Do we "possess a power within ourselves"? Who's power is being emphasized in Romans 8:31-37? I HIGHLY suggest you listen to Martin Lloyd Jones' sermon titled "More Than Conquerors"(link provided below) and compare it to what I've played for you. What a difference! https://www.mljtrust.org/search/?name=&q=Romans+8%3A37 Enjoy! And may this episode bless you and bring glory to God!
