Episode Synopsis

Jesus with women: Luke is the New Testament writer with the most references
to the role or women in God’s plan of salvation. And when we unpack Jesus'
attitude towards and interaction with women in context, we see that he
began a revolution for and radical endorsement of the status of women in
God’s kingdom. Paul’s assertion that there real are no male or female, for
all are one in Christ, is the logical conclusion of Jesus’ treatment of all
people. And so, given the gender equality we see promoted in NT, the
question for all of us becomes less about what our gender says about who we
are, and more about who God says we are as unique individuals. Our job is
to give our gifts and calling back to him, and allow him to lead us as we
use what we have in service and furthering of his beautiful kingdom.
