Episode Description from the Publisher

What happens when popular Christian voices claim that hierarchy is the root cause of harm in marriage, sex, and the church?In this episode, I listen through key clips from a recent Theology Gals interview with Sheila Wray Gregoire and offer a live, real-time response. I examine claims about complementarianism, egalitarianism, purity culture, deconstruction, women's well-being, marriage dynamics, and the future of the church.Rather than simply telling you what to think, I hope to model the process of discernment...evaluating arguments, questioning assumptions, examining methodology, and comparing every claim to Scripture. Along the way, I highlight points of agreement, challenge what I believes are misrepresentations of complementarian theology, and explores how Christians can thoughtfully engage influential voices online.Whether you're wrestling with questions about marriage, church leadership, deconstruction, or how to evaluate the content you consume, this episode offers a practical look at biblical discernment in action.-----------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:WE HEART NUTRITIONFrom Our Family to Yours, Whole Supplements for Every Age and Stage.Go to http://www.weheartnutrition.com  for more information.Use my code: ALISAA'DEL NATURAL COSMETICSElevate your skincare routine with A'del's toxin-free cosmetics. Experience the difference in quality and purity. Go to www.adelnaturalcosmetics.com for more information. Use my code: ALISA FOUNDATION WORLDVIEWFoundation Worldview creates curriculum series that will empower your child to thinkBiblically in a deceptive world. Go to www.foundationworldview.com for more information.Use my code: ALISA----------------------------------------------------------------------Booking: www.alisachilders.com/bookingTo help in your study of the Bible: www.logos.com/alisaTo Purchase the new CD, “Beauty from the Ash”, go to www.alisachilders.com/musicThere you can get the CD, backing tracks, string charts, rhythm charts and stems.Support us on Patreon:  www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”:  www.alisachilders.com/another-gospel/To order “Live Your Truth":  www.alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/To order “The Deconstruction of Christianity”: https://alisachilders.com/the-deconstruction-of-christianity/Potential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/
