36: Women, Calling and Theology with Kristen Padilla

Allison and Nick are overjoyed to have on Kristen Padilla. Kristen is a graduate of Beeson Divinity School and and is a mother, wife, and minister of the Gospel and we talk about a lot of really interesting this! More specifically, we talk about her book Now that I am Called: A Guide for Women Discerning a Call to Ministry, which is an excellent book that you should pick up! Her book is so important to constructing a theology of vocation and calling, specifically for women who feel called to Christian ministry.

Topics include the gender of Jesus, the incarnation, a theology of calling, T.F. Torrance, parenting, and the nature of how to be the church in this day and age - complementarians and egalitarians together!

Well we are back! Sort of!

It has been a busy few months with the new job transition for Nick, but thank God we are finally on some sort of schedule. This week we talk with Dr. Michael F. Bird, who is Academic Dean and Lecturer in Theology at Ridley College in Australia about Jesus and his view of gender. Mike is a former complementarian who has recently changed his mind on the bible's view of women and we talk about many things in this episode.

Among these things discussed are Jesus and divorce, coffee, Mike's poor taste in drinks, the genderedness of Jesus and soteriology, the issue of sexism and gender dynamics in the classroom, and so on and so forth. It was lively!

We apologize for the audio quality, as we are still working on figuring out how to properly record people who are technically in the future.

For Mike's books, we recommend his The Gospel of the Lord, Evangelical Theology, and his new commentary on Romans.

We hope you enjoy!
