Our Q&R podcast for the seeker and skeptic in all of us. It’s designed to foster a posture of curiosity about ourselves and others.
This month, we’re taking on another tough question: Is the Bible anti-women?
Many people assume that Christianity has historically suppressed women, pointing to passages about submission, silence in the church, or even polygamy in the Old Testament. But is that actually what the Bible teaches? Or is there more to the story?
In this episode, we’ll explore how Jesus radically elevated the status of women, how the early church gave them leadership roles, and why a closer reading of Scripture reveals a deeply countercultural view of women’s dignity and worth.
