#12 The Bible Tells Me So...Maybe.

The Marcella Project - A podcast by Rev. Dr. Jackie Roese - Wednesdays

In the conservative church, we are taught to be the ideal biblical woman. We hear sermons on how we are to be gentle and quiet in spirit, to submit, not to lead or teach men. And there are bible verses to prove it. I used to think those teachings, that restrict, limit women, were based on the bible until I realized it wasn’t. It’s also about sex, power, and gender constructs. That’s what I want us to talk about today, gender constructs. Don’t worry. I’ve got it on the calendar, and we’re going to discuss sex and power too.
