Complementarianism vs. Egalitarianism: Understanding Gender Roles Within The Church
Sep 13, 2023 Season 2 Episode 32
Brady

Join us for a stimulating dialogue with Mick Thornton as we unpack two contrasting perspectives on gender roles in the church and the home - Complementarianism and Egalitarianism. We take a critical look at the implications of these views in the context of church leadership and consider how the issue of authority plays a pivotal role in both the church and the family. We also examine the potential challenges churches may face when they hold strong views on gender roles, particularly when the most passionate members are female. 

Listen in as we explore how misinterpretations of Complementarianism and Egalitarianism can lead to extreme views and even abuse within the church. We take a journey through biblical texts, discussing figures such as Deborah, a female judge, and Jesus' advocacy for women's rights. Lastly, we navigate the controversial topic of authority and abuse in Christianity, exploring how these views can lead to the misuse of power and the importance of prioritizing people over organizations. Join us for this deep and enlightening conversation!
