We were curious as to why so many Christians have an understanding of gender roles that tends to be oppressive to women; we figured those ideas had to come from somewhere

These ideas, then influenced the early church fathers, the early church fathers influenced the reformers, and the reformers influenced modern-day theologians.

Some of the things you can expect in this series: the emphasis on outward appearance (this episode), diet/SDA health message, gender roles and obsession with hierarchy, the psychology behind religious trauma, and more.

We encourage you to not just take our word for it. All the links are below, so read the source material for yourselves to see what we’ve been studying. Is there anything we missed? Anything you want us to cover before we’re done with this series?
