Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

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.
The "Job Girl" with Ellie Paley
Q: For those who do not know Ellie Paley, who is she?
Ellie Paley is a devoted biblical scholar who has immersed herself in biblical studies, with a PhD from Cambridge, and a focus on the Book of Job, aiming to contribute to wisdom literature and intertextual studies in the Old Testament.
Reframing Biblical Theology with Dan Fredericks
Q: What's the big idea of your book?
The book expands the frame of biblical theology to place salvation history within a larger, eternal design of God, emphasizing the goal of holy living and the believer's transformation into God's image rather than merely focusing on salvation alone.
