Bruce C. E. Fleming sits down with Dr. Botner to discuss Tru316 (https://tru316.com), an amazing ministry inspired by Dr. Joy Fleming's PhD dissertation on Genesis 2-3. Bruce and Joy are committed to correcting misunderstandings of Genesis 3:16, a text that has often been used to justify the subordination of women. In this episode, Bruce walks us through the argument structure of Genesis 2-3, in order to locate God's words to Eve in their proper context. And contrary to popular opinion, God's word to the woman is liberating - not subordinating. God desires men and women to be equal partners! Rev.

    Become a member of the Center for Bible Study! πŸ‘‰https://the-center-for-bible-study.teachable.com/p/the-center-for-bible-study-membership Dr. Novenson sits down with Dr. Botner to discuss his book Paul, Then and Now. Our conversation covers the challenge of reading Paul in his historical context, the centrality of Paul (especially Romans and Galatians) to Protestant Christianity, the ways in which Paul has been interpreted and reinterpreted in the Christian tradition, as well as key interpretive issues in Paul's letters. Dr. Matthew V. Novenson is Senior Lecturer in New Testament and Director of the Centre for the Study of Christian Origins at the University of Edinburgh. His research interests cluster around the question of how first-century Christian texts fit alongside non-Christian Jewish texts from the same period, in the time before Christianity emerged as a Greco-Roman religion in its own right. He has published on a range of topics including the Pauline epistles, early Christian Christology, the Bar Kokhba revolt, ancient biblical interpretation, and ancient rhetoric.

    The Impact of Anti-Scientific Views among American Evangelicals β”‚ On the Way: Episode 25
    Dr. Janet Kellogg Ray sits down with Dr. Botner to discuss her new book, The God of Monkey Science: People of Faith in a Modern Scientific World. This is an enthralling conversation about the origins of anti-scientific views among American evangelicals, and how these views were weaponized in the cultural wars in the 1970s and 1980s. Along the way, Dr. Ray clarifies what the discipline of science entails, and why certain "Christian" approaches to human origins are not, in fact, science. She also speaks practically to fellow evangelicals about how to have charitable, well-informed conversations about science with people who have been conditioned to view scientific "theories" with suspicion.
    Janet Kellogg Ray is an enthusiastic science educator, explainer, and communicator. She holds a PhD in curriculum and instruction, with eighteen years of university teaching, both biology majors and nonmajors. Raised a creationist, Janet is a science educator and a practicing Christian who accepts evolution. She is uniquely equipped to explain evolution to questioners, doubters, deniers, and those who just want to know more about the science of origins: she’s been there, and she understands.

    Dr. Joshua Jipp, Associate Professor of New Testament at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, sits down with Dr. Botner to discuss his new book, Pauline Theology as a Way of Life: A vision of Human Flourishing in Christ. They discuss the nature of Pauline theology, and the various approaches to it, and then turn to the primary theme of the book: Paul's vision for the "good life," of human flourishing. Jipp puts Paul in conversation with ancient philosophers and modern positive psychologists to show that the Apostle offers a compelling vision for ultimate happiness (participation in Christ) and the means by which humans attain it (Spirit-filled communal living). Here we see that Paul's vision for human flourishing takes place within a unity body with wonderfully diverse members.Grab your copy of Pauline Theology as a Way of Life πŸ‘‰https://www.amazon.com/Pauline-Theology-Way-Life-Flourishing/dp/1540965724/ref=sr_1_fkmr1_1?crid=2082ECRMDU1VT&keywords=josh+jipp&qid=1695419730&sprefix=josh+jipp%2Caps%2C158&sr=8-1-fkmr1Check out Josh's other books πŸ‘‰ https://www.amazon.com/stores/Joshua-W.-Jipp/author/B019ACD9HO?ref=ap_rdr&store_ref=ap_rdr&isDramIntegrated=true&shoppingPortalEnabled=trueJoin the Facebook Center for Bible Study Group for ongoing conversation about the Bible, live Q&A sessions, and great community. πŸ‘‰ https://www.facebook.com/groups/908391187019803Follow Dr. Botner on social media:Facebook page: πŸ‘‰ https://www.facebook.com/MABotner/ Twitter: πŸ‘‰ https://twitter.com/maxbotner/ TikTok: πŸ‘‰ https://www.instagram.com/drmaxbotner/ Instagram: πŸ‘‰ https://www.instagram.com/drmaxbotner/

    Dr. Botner sits down with Drs. Charles Kiser and Elaine Heath to discuss their new book, Trauma-Informed Evangelism: Cultivating Communities of Wounded Healers. Kiser and Heath discuss the damage of toxic theology and ministry models in the church, and provide a hopeful model for cultivating communities of wounded healers. We discuss why it is imperative for Christians to learn to hear the pain of our neighbors; how trauma studies and the categories of trauma and spiritual abuse are vital resources for ministry; and the beauty of the incarnation, in which the Son of God appears as both a gracious guest and a survivor of trauma.
    Dr. Charles Kiser is a pastor and theologian with Storyline Christian Community in Dallas, Texas, a network of missional communities he helped to form. He is passionate about creative expressions of Christian community, contemplative spirituality, and healing spiritual trauma. Kiser has a DMin in Contextual Theology from Northern Seminary and serves as a faculty member of Neighborhood Seminary.
    Dr. Elaine Heath is the author of eleven books and numerous articles, the most recent books being Loving the Hell Out of Ourselves (and Others) (Birch & Alder, 2021), coauthored with her sister, Jeanine Heath-McGlinn. She formerly served as Dean of the Divinity School at Duke University, where she was also professor of missional and pastoral theology, and the McCreless Professor of Evangelism at Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University. Heath cofounded two nonprofits: Missional Wisdom Foundation, and Neighborhood Seminary, a contextualized model of missional theological education for laity. Heath is an ordained elder in the United Methodist Church and served in pastoral ministry prior to her academic ministry. She currently lives with her husband at Spring Forest, an intentional Christian community and farm in rural North Carolina where she serves as abbess.

  • Episode 21: The Bible and Archeology, What you need to know!

    In this episode, Dr. Botner discusses the relationship of the Bible and archeology with two esteemed archaeologists and biblical scholars, Dr. Cynthia Schafer-Elliott and Dr. Jonathan Greer. What do archeologists actually do? Can archeology "prove" the Bible? And if not, what is its role in biblical studies? We candidly discuss the pitfalls of imposing modern standards on ancient texts and how interdisciplinary approaches are essential to fully understand the past. Listeners will gain valuable insights into the nuanced relationship between archaeology and the Bible, as well as be encouraged to pursue a deeper appreciation for reading the Bible as ancient literature.
