SHE Series 08: No Longer Any Curse {Revelation 21 & 22}
03/25/21 • 39 min
In this final episode of the SHE series we look ahead to the new creation in search of how the worth of women is put on display at the very end of the biblical storyline. What we find is that the Bible ends in the same way it begins - with a focus on men and women collectively ruling as God's representatives, but this time it's in a new and better Eden that will go on and on forever.
While very little is written specifically about women in Revelation 21 and 22, much is written about the certain future that you and I have as believers in Christ. All that is broken in us and around us will one day be restored and made whole forever.
This episode makes me think of how C.S. Lewis ends his Chronicles of Narnia series. The main characters die in a train wreck, but Lewis makes sure we understand the bigger picture: "All their life in this world and all their adventures had only been the cover and the title page. Now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story which no one on earth has read, which goes on forever and ever, in which every chapter is better than the one before."
Earbuds in! Let's peek into that Great Story together . . .

SHE Series 07: Fellow Heirs of the Grace of Life {1 Peter 3:1-7}
As we continue through the storyline of the Bible in search of what God communicates about the worth of women, we find ourselves in the New Testament epistles, which - let's be honest - are not exactly brimming with positive affirmations of a woman's worth. Or so it seems.
In this episode, I seek to confront false assumptions about women drawn from the New Testament epistles, specifically from the command for women to submit. What I hope you'll find is that rigid, check-list oriented, "men-first" teaching on submission is NOT biblical and that what God actually says to wives and husbands is consistent with what He says everywhere else in Scripture: that women are worth just as much as men and just as essential to the fulfillment of His mission in the world.
I was deeply encouraged by this one, and I pray you will be too!
