[00:00:04]Hi, this is John, and today on Theocast, Justin and I have a conversation about the relationship between men and women, not only in the church, but also in the home, and how the history of our understanding of culture
[00:00:16]and even modern-day culture has influenced our understanding of scripture.
[00:00:20]And in doing so, we believe it has caused a lot of pain, legitimate pain, and frustration.
[00:00:25]And we want to offer some help and understanding the law and the gospel, and understanding the role of Christ in his church in the kingdom, and how it can bring not only relief to a lot of the tension
[00:00:36]that is here, but we think unity and harmony.
[00:00:39]This is just part one.
[00:00:40]We aren't doing a Sempara Framanda here because we needed to spend extra time on these episodes.
[00:00:45]So, those of you who support us on Semperformanda, thank you for being patient with us and we hope you enjoy.
[00:00:51]We are excited to announce: we have a brand new podcast available called the Kingsmen Podcast.
[00:00:57]It's where we are reclaiming biblical mandate by training and equipping men for the work of the kingdom.
[00:01:02]You can find it anywhere you download a podcast.
[00:01:04]You can also watch it on YouTube.
[00:01:06]We have new episodes that come out every Monday.
[00:01:20]Welcome to Theocast, Encouraging Worry Pilgrims to Rest in Christ, conversations about the Christian life, as spicy as they may be, from a reformed confessional and pastoral perspective.
[00:01:32]Your host today are Justin Perdue, pastor of Covenant Baptist Church in Asheville, North Carolina.
[00:01:36]And I am John Moffat and the pastor of Grace Reform Church in Springhill, Tennessee.
[00:01:40]And Justin, I'm just going to throw this on you.
[00:01:42]I had the opportunity to talk to Ken Jones on the phone, and he was so thankful to be on our podcast.
[00:01:46]And I twisted his arm.
[00:01:48]I think we might be able to get him on there again.
