Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

George Washington's Sacred Fire with Peter Lillback
Q: What inspired you to write George Washington's Sacred Fire and pursue primary sources to understand Washington's beliefs?
The inspiration came from reading Washington's own words and letters, and choosing to assess him through primary sources rather than later synopses, to determine how his Anglican faith and use of Providence shaped his life and leadership.
George Washington's Sacred Fire with Peter Lillback
Q: For those who don't know you, who is Pete Lillback?
Pete Lillback is a long-time Presbyterian minister who has served in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church and the PCA, and he's the president emeritus of Westminster Theological Seminary, with a deep focus on church history and public theology.
From Genesis to Junia with Preston Sprinkle
Q: Where do you see the conversation going in the next couple of decades, especially among leaders who are currently complementarian?
I expect more leaders to be convinced by the text of Scripture for women in leadership and to revisit church structures, leading to ongoing, hopeful shifts in practice within many churches.
From Genesis to Junia with Preston Sprinkle
Q: Was there a particular passage that you felt jolted you into a new understanding, and what changed for you as a result?
Yes, Genesis 1-2 and the broader portrayal of women in Jesus' ministry prompted me to revisit traditional arguments; the process showed the importance of rigorous exegesis in moving toward a more expansive view of leadership roles for women.
The "Job Girl" with Ellie Paley
Q: Does the Book of Job really resolve, and if so, how?
Paley frames the question around meaningful resolution, acknowledging ambiguity in Job while proposing that there can be a form of resolution that integrates the book's multiple literary sections and divergent voices.
