"The Gospels are intended to help us become like Jesus. That means...racism has to go. Sexism has to go. Classism has to go. Ableism has to go. Xenophobia has to go. One by one, these demons make their exits, leaving you alone with Jesus." @bobbygilles.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/bobbygil...

Be inspired by this awesome list of women in the Bible by @margmowczko.bsky.social ! The film term "rack focus" is when the lens shifts focus from one person in a shot, blurs them out, & puts in focus another person. The Bible comes alive with the focus on the women! margmowczko.com/every-woman-...

“Everyone else can go with hate, but I’m not going there.” Dr. Martin Luther King

NOTE: disruption in Minnesota/church is a a Southern Baptist church. Men lead/sexism/racism rooted in SBC 16mil strong w/huge influence. Note too: both unusual in-church disrupters, & SBC's prez & leaders remarks: “Disrupting a church’s worship service to make a political point is disgraceful. 🔎

“The inferiority of women is man-made.” -Helen Keller

We will continue to give voice to the scholars, historians and theologians who have resurrected women in the Bible and throughout Christian history who have been erased, minimized, twisted, and transformed into males!

Christians for Biblical Equality has moved mountains over decades. Be inspired by headway made in evangelical networks. Mimi Haddad, President of CBE, reviews their efforts in 2025 ETS conference on women & Scripture, “sponsored by Evangelicals and Women—now a section of ETS. zurl.co/1MXm6

February release! So many miss Rachel's voice challenging toxic evangelical patriarchal networks. She brought hope & forged communities who joined her in her efforts. In an era we know she'd be an unrelenting presence & guiding light, this looks like a thought-provoking read.

@baptizingfeminism.bsky.social made this inspiring #StarterPack and I am not going to miss out. Do what I did and #FollowAll. Boop boop 💃🏻

Partridge’s proposal is lazy, provocative, & politically illiterate. Repealing the 19th Amendment would require a two-thirds supermajority vote in both chambers of Congress and ratification by three-fourths of the state delegations...a political impossibility. www.christianpost.com/voices/no-fe...

Words from leading male theologians who understand the powerful, prophetic message of the Magnificat/Mary's Song, & the significant role Mary plays as the favored one chosen by God to give birth to Jesus. @scotmcknight.bsky.social @religionprof.bsky.social @bobbygilles.bsky.social #Bonhoeffer

@CBSnews these sound like shallow theological "debates" About if US needs God?! Woah. Interfaith views? Ethnically diverse voices,..scholars, theologians, etc? Has Feminism failed women? Allie Beth Stuckey vs Liz Plank? Secular? First wave? Evangelical/Christian feminism? tinyurl.com/y8hbcka3

Excellent article by @nijaykgupta.bsky.social in light of Mary, the Magnificat, that includes quotes that speak powerfully to God's call for women in the church to teach. www.cbeinternational.org/resource/tea...

For those we know who have left biblical patriarchal/complementarian churches that subjugate women, or MAGA/Christian nationalist churches that have no resemblanceto Jesus, but who still long for a faith that matters, Beyond Deconstruction looks like a helpful resource. issuu.com/eerdmans/doc...

👏Is this true?"TheoBro Ted...when you walk him through Bible passages that show women did preach and exercise authority in scripture...Ted shakes his head and says, “Look.... This whole ‘women preacher’ thing is just a new #feminist idea. @bobbygilles.bsky.social open.substack.com/pub/bobbygil...

@beliefnet @foxnews how about profiling faithful, reputable male/female theologians & scholars who lead the deeply biblical movement of Christian feminism in the footsteps of the amazing first wave feminists after your coverage of Carrie Gress's, Something Wicked? www.foxnews.com/media/schola...

🤔!! Any thoughts? 👉 "One author is warning against feminism, calling it the new “megachurch.” Author Carrie Gress has authored 11 books, with her upcoming book Something Wicked: Why Feminism Can’t Be Fused With Christianity,...mimicking aspects of Christianity.” www.beliefnet.com/columnists/n...

Wow! More powerful words & support for final editing from Dr. Debra Warner. Many of our funders are leaders who understand abuse dynamics in patriarchal systems. As a male trauma expert, she also knows these systems impact women, men & children. Donate here:👇 baptizingfeminism.com/sponsors-don...

This never ceases to amaze me people are still asking if she was a prostitute centuries after Pope Gregory confused the Marys. A 2018Times of Israel article also was titled "Long Maligned, Mary Magdalene now seen as Stalwart Disciple". 👀 #tellherstory www.biblicalarchaeology.org/daily/people...

This never ceases to amaze me it took "so long" to realize this. What Bible were they reading? It's all clear in the Bible! #tellherstory www.timesofisrael.com/long-maligne...

Alert egalitarian & Christian feminist Texans; Somehow gender role theologies - tenents of complementarianism and even biblical patriarchy - will be imbedded in these chapters named “Club America” in Texas high schools. www.nbcdfw.com/news/local/t...

Christmas season brings to focus the bold & faithful spirit of Mary & her key role in Christianity. Mary's song, the Magnificat, hardly the focus of sermons, fortells the essence of Jesus' work & ministry spread through decades by women followers of Jesus. #tellherstory @religionprof.bsky.social

Of course, gender role theologies are imbedded in GOP. He "failed to listen to them on major policy issues... for Mr. Johnson — an evangelical Christian who has often voiced firm views about the distinct roles men and women should play in society.” www.nytimes.com/2025/12/03/u...

During advent season I've been reflecting on the heroines in the Bible, & what Mimi Haddad said in our film interview; “from Genesis to Revelation women in the were anything but silent.” @scotmcknight.bsky.social shares a key resource in this crucial dialogue. open.substack.com/pub/scotmckn...

"One woman, backed up by the strength of a movement, has made a difference, and she will again. That’s not just our history, but our faith." (2018) sojo.net/articles/opi...

So many crucial voices & aspects are missing from this, including egalitarian theologians, historians etc., many who can educate about the history & rise of complementarianism & influence w/Southern Baptist Convention/🇺🇲 politics. And EPIDEMICS of abuse. @usnews.com www.usnews.com/news/best-st...

There's a film term called "rack focus", where the camera doesn't move, but the cinematographer shifts focus of the lens from one image to another. So grateful for the "rack focus" from men to the women in the Bible. @margmowczko.bsky.social margmowczko.com/mary-mother-...

@kkdumez.bsky.social (see post) "Newly released emails now show Jeffrey Epstein acting as an intimate political fixer for Steve Bannon himself between 2018 and 2019." 👇2018 article raises the question, were women getting too powerful so time for backlash?🤔 www.businessinsider.com/steve-bannon...

Al Mohler loves taking on #feministtheology, this time reflects on the death of Phyliss Trible, really her texts of terror and that she was another feminist foe who was on a slippery slope. approx 3:30 #feministtheology #complementarianism youtu.be/65UgPYCqrKo?...

In the 1970s-80s, a little known, robust & important movement was left on the dusty shelves of history -- of black women working diligently as a collective force to reclaim the biblical rights of women's voices, leadership & agency. Why they were undermined. 👇 open.substack.com/pub/rjweems/p/…
