Happy International Women's Day! This episode is the first of a six-part sermon series, Biblical Women Calling us to Repentance, originally preached for Lent 2022, with Rev. Radhika Sukumar-White exploring the story of Eve through Genesis 2:18-3:19. Rev. Radhika also introduces this episode and this series.

If you wish to keep praying, journalling and reflecting, you might like to ponder these questions:

1) What do you feel moved to confess?

2) How has our misinterpretation of this story affected the way we view women?

3) How does imagining God as a feminine figure affect your theology?

4) Where do you see systemic misogyny today?

5) Hermann Gunkel suggests Adam and Eve sought to have “reason without pathos” – masterful discernment of everything, without the capacity to suffer and be vulnerable. Do we do this today?
