Can we actually live the good life now, or only later? @joshuajipp.bsky.social says Paul refuses easy answers. Full flourishing isn’t complete in this life, but being joined to Christ means the church already gets a real foretaste of the future it’s waiting for. New episode: youtu.be/trdhNAmZauo

Numbers gets a bad reputation. It starts with a census, so most people never make it past the first chapter. But Michael Morales argues it's actually the most dramatic and adventurous book in the #Torah. Watch the full episode at www.youtube.com/watch?v=R9jU... #OldTestament #bible #theology

What if the book everyone skips is actually the one that holds everything together? Dr L Michael Morales makes the case that it’s not until Numbers that God actually dwells in the midst of his people. Watch the full episode at youtu.be/R9jU_R7lBKI #theosky #bible #oldtestament #theology

Is martyrdom the highest call for Christians? The early Christian martyrdom accounts are not a call to action, but a witness to Christ's faithful identification with us, even in the worst of events. Watch the full episode with @amybrownhughes.bsky.social: youtu.be/JcJqCi3wmhc #churchhistory

Do our scholarly conclusions around women in leadership necessitate action to correct a system we have contributed to? @bethallisonbarr.bsky.social states her case in conversation with Preston Sprinkle. Watch and subscribe at youtu.be/3GsmSRzyZoY or wherever you listen to podcasts. #theology

@bethallisonbarr.bsky.social speaks of her thankfulness for Preston Sprinkle's book, 'From Genesis to Junia', but argues that the impact of complementarian theology on women goes beyond a theological argument. Watch the full episode and subscribe to TheoDisc at youtu.be/3GsmSRzyZoY #womenleaders

Preston Sprinkle reveals the point in his exegetical journey through the Scriptures when his conviction tipped from a complementarian to egalitarian perspective on women leading and teaching in the church. Watch the full episode and subscribe to TheoDisc at youtu.be/3GsmSRzyZoY #theology #theosky

The conversation around complementarian theology is often men talking to men. Women's voices bring an experience even male allies cannot fully grasp.

A wonderful example of scholars discussing areas of agreement and disagreement with Preston Sprinkle and @bethallisonbarr.bsky.social. Preston's book 'From Genesis to Junia' contains really well-structured and exegeted arguments for women in leadership, but Beth had some wider comments.

TheoDisc Podcast@theodisc.bsky.social · 7mo ago

In a culture shaped by productivity and performance, it's easy to assume spiritual growth works the same way. But the fruit of the Spirit is not something we achieve, but the character we are being formed in to. Check out the latest TheoDisc episode with Bette Dickinson: theodisc.wtctheology.org.uk

How often do those of us in a Pentecostal or Charismatic tradition practice the Eucharist as a mere symbolic ritual? What if we could see it as a communal moment of deep formation by the presence of the Spirit?
