Conversations about contentious topics that encourage people to disagree well. Co-hosted by Marcos Ortega and Lisa Spencer.
After weeks spent in Genesis 1-2, Marcos and Lisa discuss the ramifications of sin entering the world in Genesis 3. What happened when humanity fell in the garden, and what are some important implications for the church today?
Special guests Daniel Wells and Jason Little, Teaching Elders in the Presbyterian Church in America, join Lisa and Marcos to comment on the continuing debates around sexuality and gender in their denomination.
After a break for Advent, Lisa and Marcos continue discussing what it means to be human with a look at God's good design for sexuality and gender.
Climate change and environmental policies have been all over the headlines lately. Marcos and Lisa discuss how the Christian's charge to care for creation might lead us to think about these important conversations, and the tools the Church has to steward creation well.
The Covenant of Works is an important concept in Reformed Theology. How does this doctrine help us think through the work of Jesus and the calling of the church? Lisa and Marcos dive back into Genesis Two, continuing their discussion of anthropology and justice.
It's election season again and the Virginia election has our hosts talking! Marcos and Lisa are here with a special episode talking about what went down last week! Are black conservatives somehow betraying the black cause? What role did CRT have in the election and how much of a concern should it be? Listen in to some spirited but loving disagreement brought to the surface by current events.
Lisa and Marcos discuss the Creation Mandate, the role of culture building, and why this is an important discussion for churches and Christians.
In this week's episode, Lisa and Marcos talk about what it means to be made in the image of God. What are different components of the image of God? How does this impact various relationships in our lives? Why is image such an important doctrine?
Lisa and Marcos begin talking about the oft-neglected topic of Anthropology. The conversation begins with a look at human beings being specially created by God and what that means for us today.
Family Discussion is back! Before Marcos and Lisa dive back into discussions of ethnicity, justice, and systematic theology, they take a moment to reflect on a popular podcast and the important questions it raises for public Christianity. Get introspective with our hosts and share your thoughts in the comments!
