The initial 100 days of Pope Leo XIV's papacy have ushered in a notable atmosphere of cautious optimism within the Catholic Church, particularly regarding the implications for Church unity and women's ministries. In this discourse, I engage with Russ Petrus and Olivia Haste, both esteemed members of Catholic Women Preach and Future Church, to scrutinize the reception of Pope Leo XIV and the potential trajectories of his leadership. The conversation unfolds around the Pope's approach to inclusivity and dialogue, highlighting his commitment to addressing pressing global issues while fostering a sense of ecclesiastical communion. We further delve into the implications of his papacy for women in ministry, particularly in the context of initiatives like Catholic Women Preach. This episode aims to illuminate the multifaceted dimensions of Pope Leo XIV's early tenure and its reverberations throughout the Church.The discussion surrounding Pope Leo XIV's initial days as the pontiff provides a compelling insight into the evolving landscape of the Catholic Church, particularly regarding gender equity and ecumenism. The conversation between Joshua Noel, Russ Petrus, and Olivia Haste delves into the expectations and realities that have emerged in the wake of Leo's appointment. Olivia articulates a cautious optimism, noting how Leo's statements and actions appear to bridge gaps that have historically alienated certain communities from the Church. Her reflections highlight the importance of inclusivity, especially concerning women in ministry, and the necessity for the Church to adapt in a rapidly changing world. Russ echoes this sentiment, emphasizing the significance of Leo's diplomatic approach to leadership. The discussions surrounding the synodal process exemplify the Church's commitment to listening to diverse voices and integrating their perspectives into the broader ecclesial conversation. As the conversation unfolds, it becomes clear that Pope Leo XIV's papacy presents both challenges and opportunities for deepening church unity and enhancing the role of women within the Catholic tradition, encouraging a more participatory and inclusive ecclesial environment. The episode concludes with a reflection on how these developments may reshape the future of the Church, fostering a renewed sense of hope and engagement among the laity, particularly women in ministry.Takeaways: The initial 100 days of Pope Leo XIV have been marked by cautious optimism regarding his approach to Church Unity and inclusivity. Pope Leo XIV's emphasis on listening and dialogue suggests a potential shift in the dynamics of women's ministries within the Catholic Church. The synodal process initiated under Pope Francis is expected to play a pivotal role in shaping the future of gender equity in church leadership. Catholic Women Preach continues to advocate for women's voices in preaching, providing a platform for female homilists despite institutional barriers. The reception of Pope Leo XIV among progressive Catholics reflects a mix of hope and skepticism, particularly regarding his stance on women in ministry. Pope Leo XIV's commitment to addressing global social issues may enhance ecumenical relationships with other denominations advocating for gender equity. .Check out all of the other shows in the Anazao Podcast Network:https://anazao-ministries.captivate.fm.Be sure to check out new merch on The Whole Church store:https://my-store-e8a57d.creator-spring.com.Check out the episode we did after Pope Leo XIV was first appointed with Prof Chris Moreland:

One of the common questions we are asked regarding house churches is, How do you practice leadership? Team member David Legge walks through a Biblical understanding of leadership as it pertains to a house church. You'll hear Kathryn and David discuss the five-fold leadership outlined in Ephesians 4, and a weave of leadership that doesn't look as hierarchical, but still has Bibical order. You'll hear about how elders and house church leaders likely worked in the cities where the earlychurch began, and how we might model ourselves in similar ways. We also talk about women in ministry, looking at examples in Scripture of how Jesus built his church. In a subject that can feel overwhelming or even controversial,  we hope that you might find helpful ways to look at church leadership in your own context through this discussion.

On occasion we address Covenant Church family questions during the Sunday morning message. We want to engage our folks where they are, and these questions help our pastors be more effective, by understanding where they struggle.There are many decisions Covenant makes, positions we take et al that do not make the difference between heaven and hell, and on which other churches sometimes take a different approach. Because our church is multi-denominational, we have many rich faith traditions represented among our people.

In this episode, we're joined by the wise and wonderful Lisa Harper — author, Bible teacher, and one of the most joy-filled voices in the Church today. With her trademark humor and heartfelt honesty, Lisa shares a powerful conversation with Shelley Giglio about theology, friendship, and the beauty of living in a deep community connection. Lisa opens up about her early struggles with inadequacy and how, for a time, theology became a mask she wore rather than a lens through which she could truly see Jesus. But as God gently reshaped her heart, Lisa began to understand that real theology is deeply relational, all about knowing Christ and letting that knowledge transform our lives. In this conversation, Lisa lets us into how that revelation has impacted her view on community, and challenges us to do the same. She also gives us a glimpse into what God is doing through her Kerygma Conference and her new book, “A Jesus Shaped Life.” In true Lisa Harper fashion, this episode is filled with both deep belly laughs and powerful theological truths, serving as a reminder to us that theology isn't just for classrooms or scholars, but for every woman longing to know Jesus and walk with Him more closely.The Grove is an extension of all God is doing here at Passion City Church in Atlanta, Georgia, to serve and care for women everywhere.

What does it look like when gospel renewal is forged through suffering and planted in the heart of a global city?

Send us a text In this episode of the Bare Marriage Podcast, I am talking with Biblical Greek scholar Marg Mowczko about the true meaning of "headship" in the Bible. Marg reveals that the Greek word "kephale" (head) doesn't typically mean "leader" or "authority" in ancient literature, and that no verse actually commands men to lead their wives. Instead,  head-body metaphors are used in Scripture to describe unity and mutual care and as a picture of growing into the likeness of Christ for ALL Christians.  Together, Marg and I talk about the Biblical evidence of Paul's support for women in ministry roles. We also take a moment to discuss the best Bible versions for more accurate translation in key passages about submission and hierarchy. TO SUPPORT US: Join our Patreon for as little as $5 a month to support our workFor tax deductible donations in the U.S., support Good Fruit Faith Initiative through the Bosko FoundationAnd check out our Merch, or any of our courses!Join our email list!THINGS MENTIONEDMarg's websiteMarg's patreonMarg's blog post on the best Bible versionEverything on 1 Corinthians 11Everything on Ephesians 5Support the showJoin Sheila at Bare Marriage.com!Check out her books: The Great Sex Rescue She Deserves Better The Good Girl's Guide to Great Sex and The Good Guy's Guide to Great Sex And she has an Orgasm Course and a Libido course too!Check out all her courses, FREE resources, social media, books, and so much more at Sheila's LinkTree.

In this episode of The Grove Podcast, Shelley Giglio sits down with the legendary CeCe Winans — the best-selling female gospel artist of all time — for a heartfelt conversation about legacy, surrender, and what it really means to live a life marked by Jesus.CeCe's voice and influence have shaped generations of worshippers, but it's her deep love for Jesus and her desire to reflect Him clearly that shines most. She shares honestly about the challenge of dying to self, the joy of walking humbly with God, and the kind of legacy she hopes to leave — not of fame or applause, but pure faith in Jesus. Whether you're in a season of building, leading, parenting, or simply learning how to abide, CeCe's words will stir your heart toward a legacy that reflects Christ.The Grove is an extension of all God is doing here at Passion City Church in Atlanta, Georgia, to serve and care for women everywhere.
