Welcome to Crisis in Perception, where we examine the systems shaping our world — one book at a time.

This episode explores Marriage, Bible, Violence: Intersections and Impacts by Saima Afzal & Johanna Stiebert as a systems-level analysis of how interpretive authority shapes marriage norms, gender hierarchy, and institutional responses to violence.

By focusing on patterns rather than individuals, the episode shows why these systems persist — even when their consequences are widely recognized.
