But have these ideas been shaped by secular ideas, or by a biblical worldview? Sarah Stonestreet, host of the Strong Women Podcast, shares what a strong woman of God looks like and how every woman has a story of real strength.

Why is understanding marriage and the nature of men and women so crucial? As Dr. Colin Smothers and Dr. Jeff discuss, the Bible begins with a marriage between Adam and Eve, the gospel is explained as a marriage, and history ends with a marriage between the Lamb and the Church, the Bride. If we lack an understanding of marriage, sexuality, and human nature, we will inevitably have trouble understanding the good news of Jesus and the biblical narrative. Check out Dr. Smothers’ book, Male and Female He Created Them: A Study on Gender, Sexuality, & Marriage.

Dr. Jeff is joined by Summit Ministries' new Program Director, Kasey Leander, to discuss what many will see as the surprising openness of Gen Z to hearing and learning more about God, as evidenced by research that found one-third of 18-to-25 year-olds are more open than not about the existence of a higher power. Leander offers evidence from his own experience evangelizing on college campuses that the rising generation is longing for answers to their biggest questions. And open to hearing about Jesus in pursuit of those answers. The key in witnessing to them, he says, is to recognize and act on the truth that outrage is not a strategy, and to lead with a question when aiming to start a God conversation.
