Summary

0:00 Introduction 1:53 Will we be naked in heaven? 8:42 Are there any ways that you observe American masculinity norms would benefit from a more diverse cultural perspective? 12:47 Who do you think wrote Hebrews? 14:20 What is your view of David and Bathsheba--rape rather than consensual? Couldn't she have resisted? 16:52 I am happy and flourishing in our church. My spouse is not. What do we do? 19:20 John 15:3...we're not called to be like Christ in this way right? What are your thoughts? 23:22 Do you have suggestions for how to talk to a spouse who gets hostile with key topics when genuine curiousity increases tension and elicits confrontational responses? 27:55 Old earth or young earth? 30:11 Thoughts on Luigi Mangione and the national response? Babylon seems like they want to free him. Is motive important? 33:13 Solomon's great wisdom didn't help him in the end. Shouldn't we read it through the lense that Solomon wandered from God? 36:51 Leviticus 17 prohibits eating blood. Jesus tells us to drink his blood. Can you reconcile this? 38:16 How did Christ's incarnation, death and resurrection change anything besides the need for the sacrifice? There's still so much injustice and suffering in the world. 42:08 "Leadership" has different secular and biblical meanings. Does the word "authority" differ in the Bible as well? 45:43 The new church I attended had a kids service with raffle and door prizes--it felt "icky."

0:00.0	This episode is brought to by Logos.
0:02.9	Logos is the premier Bible study software.
0:06.0	I use Logos almost every single day.
0:08.8	I have for many years.
0:10.3	In fact, I've been a huge fan of Logos
0:11.6	long before they started sponsoring Theology and Raw.
0:14.6	Logos not only gives you a massive theological library
0:17.8	right at your fingertips,
0:19.5	but its search engine capabilities are just
0:21.8	off the chart. What I typically do when I'm studying a passage is I simply type in the passage
0:26.2	into Logos and boom, it immediately pulls up all kinds of different commentaries and books
0:31.5	that deal with that passage. So I can see immediately what the top five or 10 or 20 scholars are saying about any given passage.
0:39.3	And this is only scratching the surface of what Logos is capable of doing.
0:43.3	And rather than lugging hundreds of books with me to the coffee shop when I'm going elsewhere to study,
0:48.3	all I need is Logos. It's a lot lighter than 100 books.
0:52.3	So whether you're pasturing a church, taking a seminary class, or leading a small group,
0:55.7	there's never been a better time to join the millions who are already using Lagos.
1:00.9	And they, okay, so they just released a new version, and it's more affordable than ever.
1:05.2	And here's the thing.
1:05.8	You can try it for free for 30 days.
1:07.5	And if you go to logos.com forward slash theology, you can take advantage of an
1:13.6	exclusive theology in the raw extended two-month free trial. So go try it. Try it out.
