ReStoried

"Rest" isn't just about the rhythm that Yahweh intended for humanity, it's about resistance, presence, and right relationships. How did that look for God's ancient people? How does that look like for us? Send any comments or questions our way at this link!

Join us for the first conversation of this summer's miniseries! In this episode, we think about the ways we see rest in our American and European cultures, then jump headfirst into a biblical theology of rest. Why does God (who doesn't need to rest) rest after creation? Why does God expect his people to live in a rhythm of work-and-rest? How do these ideas shape our decisions and thinking now? Send any comments and questions our way here!

Listen in to the final part of our conversation around gendered embodiment. When it really comes down to it, what does our allegiance to Jesus mean for how we view our bodies? What does it mean for the way we respond to people whose theology and conclusions about gendered embodiment diverge from the biblical story? What does God intend for his people, whether they're men or women? Join us as we dive into these questions. Send any comments our way at this link.

We've journeyed through the biblical narrative, so now we're asking what difference that makes. When we look at the issues about gendered embodiment that feels most relevant right now, what questions should we be asking? How does our theology inform the answers we arrive at? Join us for part 1 of wrapping up this theme series! Send comments and questions our way at this link.

What does Jesus' own resurrection have to do with our here-and-now gendered bodies? What about our hope for our bodies in the future... and what difference does that future hope make now? Join us as we explore these questions. Send comments our way at this link!
