Can I Say That?

Can women Biblically teach men? Is the term pastor synonymous with the term elder? Why are women's roles in ministry even a topic that needs to be discussed? Join us as Matt Bowen unpacks the Biblical text surrounding gender and office. Egalitarians and Complementarianists welcome. 

When the Bible says "Do not be anxious" what does that actually mean? Is suicide selfish? Will God only heal those who have strong faith? Is Bethel crazy? Yeah, we are talking about ALL these questions. Join us as Ali Gadbaugh shares about her walk with mental illness. 

Can Christians use explicit language? SHOULD Christians use explicit language? Are we being too legalistic if we say no? Listen in as Lauren Bowen shares her view of how we are called to speak as followers of Christ. 

How can the church better love and engage with the LGBTQ community without fundamentally agreeing? Is that even possible to have rich relationships with those you disagree with on such strong issues? Lets talk about it!

Arguably the most misunderstood part of the Trinity, we sit down and ask who exactly is the Holy Spirit and what does He do? Is He chaotic? Boring? Is being baptized in the Spirit even real? Lets talk about it. 

Engaging with culture as Christians in a post Christian world - talking about issues we don't often hear brought up at church but see on a daily basis. From mental illness to charismatic gifts to abortion, we plan to talk about it all. Join us in August!
