  • Men and Women (1) Communication problems

    (1) Communication problems, 19th July 2023

    This series explores a range of topics connected with relationships between men and women, including some where a degree of confusion exists in the contemporary Reformed world. For example:

    • Understanding masculinity and femininity: How exactly has God made men and women different? To what extent are general trends reflected in individual cases? How should we seek to display our created male/female distinctiveness in everyday life?
    • Communication problems: Do men are women tend to communicate in different ways? What challenges does this pose for our relationships?
    • Dealing with singleness: How should men and women who desire to marry approach the challenges of a (potentially extended) period of singleness?
    • Choosing a marriage partner: What should single people be looking for in a potential spouse? How do you know when you’ve found it?
    • Understanding one another: Why do men and women sometimes completely fail to grasp what makes the other tick? And what can be done about it?
    • Authority and submission: What does it mean for a husband to be the “head” of his wife? What does it mean for a wife to “submit” to her husband?
    • Cultural differences in marriage: Are they real? If they are, do they matter?
    • Resisting cultural pressure: In what ways do worldly cultural pressures impinge on our relationships?
    • Handling hard times: What are the distinctive temptations that men and women tend to face in difficult circumstances? How can we handle them?
    • Sexual temptation: Where do we begin…?
    • And much, much more.

    • Do we need a parallel Christian economy?

      In recent years, an increasing number of Christians have been advocating for a parallel Christian economy – an economical landscape within which Christians can do business with Christians, sidestepping the increasingly anti-Christian mainstream economy. Pastor Jeffery shares some thoughts on the pros and cons of this idea.
