Bob Edwards explains that gender socialization happens through overt instruction, modeling, and reinforcement. And through these conditioning processes, we develop internalized gender norms and expectations ourselves. Listen at www.thebeautifulkingdombuilders.com/tbkb-pod/

Our socialization results in a cognitive lens thru which we interpret the world. For those raised in patriarchal cultures, that results in gender norm expectations that subjugate women. Reading the Bible through a patriarchal lens distorts the message of the Bible. thebeautifulkingdombuilders.com

Socialization is a process of conditioning us in cultural norms that become internalized, giving us subconscious cognitive lenses through which we see and interpret the world. Listen to this important conversation with Bob Edwards on TBKB podcast! www.thebeautifulkingdombuilders.com

In my latest episode, Bob Edwards explains the process of socialization, how societal norms are internalized and shape our perception of the world. This impacts our faith as we bring cultural biases to our Bible reading. Check it out on TBKB podcast! www.thebeautifulkingdombuilders.com

Growing up evangelical, I was told complementarianism was the only faithful way to read the Bible. Engaging with egalitarian theologians like Dr. Ciampa, it's clear that isn't true. In our conversation, he explains the context of Ephesians and how that impacts reading ch 5, podlink.com/1858367321.

In our podcast episode, Dr. Ciampa explains how his research into Greco-Roman marriage helps us understand 1 Corinthians 14:34-35 as well as the Ephesians household instructions. Listen at podlink.com/1858367321 or thebeautifulkingdombuilders.com. #biblestudy #biblicalmarriage #contextmatters #fyp

What exactly was marriage like in the Greco-Roman world, and should that context change how we apply Paul's instructions in Ephesians 5? I had an enlightening conversation about this on today's podcast episode with my former seminary professor, Dr. Roy Ciampa. (podlink.com/1858367321). #fyp #podcast
