• Be Careful What You Ask For Church

  

  The last few weeks have been full of intensive Bible study. (The fruits of that will bear soon in a few articles I’m working on) I cracked a smile at one point, realizing that when the church says to “study your Bible,” is that really what they want? Growing up in a conservative church, there…

• That’s Not God

  

  People struggle to reconcile the God of the Old Testament and the God who sacrificed His own son out of love for us. Those rightly come across as two different Gods. Many have heard the same apologetics employed to get over this hurdle. What if that wasn’t God at all? Today we have a higher…

There is also this natural tendency towards belief in the supernatural, a higher power that brought us into existence and has some ultimate plan. Coinciding with…

• “She’s Gotta Be a He!”- The Patriarchy

  

  Humans have this two steps forward, one step back approach to making progress towards equality. Seeing as we’re currently in a one step back phase right now, it feels like a good time to cover a lesser known figure. Meet Junia, the female apostle. You may have heard of her before, but have you heard…
