Penny Preaches?? The Authors tell us all about this great children's book!
1w ago00:29:50Tap to summarizeAre role models important to children who feel God's call to ministry?? Many have said so. Penny Preaches is about the little girl named Penny and how she learned to trust God's call in her life. We interview Rob and Amy Dixon about the story behind their book and its publication. Make sure to get one and share it with the girls you know! From IVF Kids publications. Amy Dixon grew up as one of seven siblings, so the only peace and quiet she ever got was inside a book. Once she had her own kids, she rediscovered her love for picture books at the public library. It was the one place she knew all four of her kids would be happy . . . and quiet. She writes from her home, where she lives with her four little inspirations and her marathon-running husband, Rob. Rob is also the author of Allies in Ministry: How Men Can Support Women in God’s Mission. The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E.

1 Tim 2.13-14 Creation Order? No. Eligible for Ministry? Yes!
May 1700:22:14Tap to summarizeCREATION ORDER in 1 Timothy 2:13-15a? Not at all! This passage is about ELIGIBILITY FOR CORRECTION. Eve and Paul were both second degree offenders who found mercy from God and were used in ministry. She as mother of the Promised Savior. He as Apostle to the Gentiles. These insights challenge foundational Complementarian mistakes. Go deeper? see Book 3 in The Eden Books Series by Bruce C. E.

Paul's Hallelujah Chorus in Eph 5.22-6.9 and why we need to see the parts!
Apr 2600:21:36Tap to summarizeWe and He are ONE! This is the teaching in the key verse of Ephesians 5:32. WE MUST SEE THE PATTERNS IN PAUL"S USE OF THE PROPHETIC RHETORICAL TEMPLATE. THEN WE SEE PAUL WAS TALKING ABOUT UNITY IN THE JOINT-BODY WITH CHRIST. Then, we see Paul's teaching on Christian spouses discipling one another! Did Paul really have that many PATTERNS in the passage from Ephesians 5:22-6:9? Oh yes! Those who have missed these patterns act like the blind men who had a hard time describing an elephant. The blind men saw the parts: a wall, a tree trunk, etc. But they missed the living breathing mighty animal. Go deeper? Yes.

Horizontal not vertical submission in Christian relationships - Eph 5.22-6.9
Apr 1900:14:25Tap to summarize“We and He are one!” That is Paul's message in this beautiful but misunderstood passage in Ephesians 5:22-6:9. The center of Paul's message is 5:32 yet people get off track looking for subordination of wives in the home. Here we focus on the patterns and implications of Paul's message in the Greek text of this famous passage. We see three three verse numbers in Ephesians 5:19-21 but this is actually a parallelism of four parts: A and A prime are in 19a and 21. B and B prime are in 19b and 20. WE MUST TAKE THE TWO A SECTIONS TOGETHER. WHEN WE DO WE SEE THAT BELIEVERS SUBMIT TO THE TEACHING AND ADMONITION THEY RECEIVE FROM ONE ANOTHER. In the same way we insert this reciprocal action of building up one another into verse 22 where Paul is speaking about both spouses in a Christian home building up one another! Go deeper? Read the book "Beyond Eden" with more details and study guides as well for group work. https://a.co/d/02oo5Rrk The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E.
