Theology Mom || All The Things

The annual meeting for the World Economic Forum was a few weeks ago. We want to catch you up about what the WEF is and what they are trying to accomplish. If you’ve heard the terms “the great reset,” or the “fourth Industrial Revolution” but don’t really know what that means be sure to tune in. It’s a globalist movement that is reshaping our everyday lives and redefining what constitutes as the public good.

This is a rebroadcast of a livestream that I did yesterday over at the Center for Biblical Unity. I explain an emerging position within the prolife movement called abolitionism. Come find out about why some Christians think that abortion should be criminalized. Read Sam Sey’s blog post: https://slowtowrite.com/why-i-am-not-an-abolitionist-on-abortion/ For more about the abolitionist position, see the Abolitionists Rising channel on YouTube.

We are answering the most frequent question we get on the road. For the first time, we are having a public conversation about Monique's backstory and how she came to be a missionary in South Africa, her emergency transition off the mission field in 2018 and why she went back, even though she thought she might die there for the sake of the Gospel.

Krista is filling into today again for Monique on the Family Meeting. She is building on last week's discussion about diversity and looking at another popular idea in the DEI conversation: representation. What does it mean and what is it supposed to accomplish?

I am continuing my extended teaching series on evangelism. We are changing gears a bit away from all the hard core theology to consider a practical strategy for sharing the faith with others.

We are getting more and more people writing into the ministry asking for help to think through where the line in the sand is for them when it comes to their jobs conflicting with their religious convictions. We will talk to our friend John Stonestreet, President of the Colson Center, to get his perspective on what Christians should do to prepare for costly conviction in the workplace.

I did an explainer video earlier today on the issue of "diversity" in hiring practices. I explain two major visions for diversity and unravel the confusion for regular people.

This is part 4 of the Everyday Evangelism teaching series. I summarize the big ideas of what we've covered so far and then suggest some practical ways that the kingdom of God ought to shape our Gospel presentations.

Christians generally agree that the Bible commands us to take care of orphans. But there is robust discussion about what qualifies as being in the child's best interest. In recent years, the principles of Critical Adoption Theory have shaped the policies and practices for many adoption agencies. There is a growing sentiment, even among Christian adoption agencies, that interethnic adoptions are often not in a child's best interest. We will hear about one couple's journey through the Christian adoption system and their encounters with Critical Adoption Theory. Guest: Dr. Bill Roach

Mike Winger dropped the final installment in his extended teaching series on women in ministry. Here are my thoughts on his research.
