James joins to Andrew in this episode to discuss his recent article for EFAC-USA's blog "39+" titled "If Anglicanism is Everything, It's Nothing". Read the article here.

We also discussed a recent article for Living Church from the Rev. David Beadle "Bibliolatry: the Exvangelical Boogeyman"

Shownotes:

When we discussed "literalism", Andrew referenced the following:

Dr. Iaian Provan's interview on the On Script podcast- episode On Reading the Bible Literally

and Dr. Garwood Anderson's article for Living Church on biblical literalism

The Rev. Bryan Jarrell recently wrote an article for Mockingbird about the Asbury Revival. We thank him for giving the time to be on Doth Protest Too Much to discuss what he wrote, as well as revivalism in general. Tune in for a great conversation.

Bryan is the pastor of Epiphany Anglican Fellowship in Ligonier, PA. Check his other pieces he has written for Mockingbird here.

The article from the Asbury student Anna Lowe about her experience at the revival can be accessed here.

The excerpt from Thomas Garrett Isham's biography of Charles McIlvaine that Andrew read the quote from can be found here.

Deaconess Ellie Corrow and Dr. Bethany Kilcrease join the podcast to discuss their review of Beth Allison Barr's popular book The Making of Biblical Womanhood: How the Subjugation of Women Became Gospel Truth. Their review was published in 2021. 

Part 1 of their review can be read HERE.

Deaconess Ellie Corrow serves as missionary care coordinator for the LCMS Office of International Mission. She also serves on the board of Higher Things- a Lutheran ministry to youth and young adults. Ellie writes, along with others including Dr. Kilcrease on their substack titled “Lutheran Women on the Road”, a blog and newsletter about "loving God and loving neighbor, and walking faithfully in this tension of Christian discipleship". 

Dr. Bethany Kilcrease is a professor of History at Aquinas College in Michigan. She holds a Ph.D. in modern British history from Boston University. She specializes in British and European modern intellectual and religious history. She is also the author of the recent book Falsehood and Fallacy: How to Think, Read, and Write in the Twenty-First Century

Additional show notes: Andrew made a reference to the book which argues for the commonly called 'egalitarian' position (men and women can share in ordained ministry) Bourgeois Babes, Bossy Wives, and Bobby Haircuts: A Case for Gender Equality in Ministry by Michael F. Bird.

We were excited to have Todd Brewer, New Testament scholar and Managing Editor of Mockingbird, join us for a great talk that covered a lot of important ground. So great that Andrew could not even come up with a name other than the various things we talked about! Enjoy!

Visit here to read more of Todd's work at Mockingbird. (We mention his MBird articles "Comforting the Comfortable", "How Revolutionary was Paul?", and "A View from the Ivory Tower", all accessible through that link.)

The quotation referenced by Andrew is found on p. 157 of Paul and the Power of Grace by John Barclay

Dr. Suzanne Bray joins James and Andrew on this episode for an often unexplored but fascinating aspect of C.S. Lewis: his views on politics. Tune in for a great discussion! Dr. Bray is Professor of British Literature and Civilization at Lille Catholic University in the North of France. She has written extensively both in English and in French on C.S. Lewis and other modern Anglican authors.

*The title for this may give away one of the hymns we discuss.* Drew, Stephen, James, and Charlie get together to go further down (or up?) their list of favorite hymns.

On Dec. 31st, 2022, the Rev. Dr. James Nestingen went to be with our Lord. Nestingen was a leading scholar and authority on Martin Luther in North America. However, he was much more a pastor before anything else. Many have been blessed to know him, to study under him, and to drink scotch with him- including our (returning) guest today: the Rev. Kyle Tomlin. Kyle was with us before for our episode on theology and comic books. Kyle was a student of Dr. Nestingen and shares some great memories about him on this episode.

In this episode we referenced the books:

Free to Be (which Nestingen co-authored with Gerhard Forde), https://www.augsburgfortress.org/store/product/5230/Free-to-Be-Student-Book

Martin Luther: A Life, https://www.amazon.com/Martin-Luther-Life-James-Nestingen/dp/0800697146

Martin Luther: His Life and Teachings, https://www.amazon.com/Martin-Luther-His-Life-Teachings/dp/1592446728

Zac Neubauer joins the podcast again with Andrew to go over books we read over 2022- not necessarily books that were published in 2022 but books that we read over the course of that year. Tune in to hear our recommendations and opinions, and feel free to disagree!

Rev. Zac Neubauer is the President of EFAC-USA (Evangelical Fellowship in the Anglican Communion). This is his third time on the podcast (which means we owe him a t-shirt.) Zac serves as Interim Priest-in-Charge at St. Clement's Episcopal Church in Rancho Cordova, CA and is a graduate of Trinity School for Ministry in Ambridge, PA. Zac writes over at Confessing Anglicans. Find his work here: https://confessinganglicans.com/author/zneubauer/
