Continuing the conversation about singleness--this time with Mike Chu. What does the message of singleness as eschatological tell us about marriage and childlessness and how to value and interact within our relationships? A fantastic conversation that opens the doors to listening to one another and seeing how we reflect Jesus in our midst.

A comparison of LDS theology with biblical theology, especially focused on the divine council worldview. A recounting of the LDS story of creation and salvation (otherwise known as "exaltation") and looking at how these display the differences between Christianity and "Mormonism."

Jesus says that angels in heaven don't marry, so how could the sons of God in Genesis 6 be spirit beings? How many generations does it take for "Nephilim DNA" to be diluted? How do we get Nephilim after the flood? Modern DNA vs. ancient bloodlines--what's the difference? And what does Calvinball have to do with any of that?

Is singleness what we all have to look forward to in the eschaton? Reviewing Danielle Treweek's book, The Meaning of Singleness: Retrieving an Eschatological Vision for the Contemporary Church. The church has traditionally seen singleness to be THE "eschatological" view, but more recent history has flipped this on its head and now marriage is often elevated in ways that are potentially problematic. Perhaps there's a third way of seeing the eschaton's imagery rather than a battle between singleness OR marriage.

Marriage according the Bible: Continuity between the Old Testament to the New Testament to the church to today. Are we actually "thinking biblically"? Do our ideas about sex and marriage reflect what the Bible says? Inheritance, virginity, the divine council worldview, and the idea that Jesus expanded the Torah.

Continuing the conversation about sexuality with a detour into the topic of physical embodiment as seen from Jesus, the gospel, sacrament, and community. Do you see creation as cursed? Are the sacraments "just" symbolic? Two connected questions that with the message of the gospel can help us address our discomforts with our bodies.

How do we understand gender identity from a biblical perspective?
Focusing on the topic of gender and how it came to be today, I discuss the book the Genesis of Gender by Abigail Favale. She explains the "gender paradigm" and encourages us to see a "Genesis paradigm" in relation to how we see ourselves and our bodies.**Website: www.genesismarksthespot.com

Seeing the cosmos as an interconnected whole does not come naturally to us today. This is a source of many of our struggles with understanding the divine council worldview, the image of God, and the deep meaning of ritual. A discussion on science, its nature and uses, and kicking some ideas around to stir up our minds to get that ancient context in our heads as we read Scripture. The raqia, thresholds, boundaries, and carrying our biblical imaginations from today into yesterday.

The giant questions: what is the seed of the serpent, who are the Nephilim, and how is it that the flood didn't wipe them out?
Intersecting with the concepts of the divine council worldview and the identity of the sons of God (are they different from Genesis 6 to Genesis 11/Deuteronomy 32, and were they always rebellious?), and how all this fits in with the gospel of Jesus Christ and the body of Christ!Come listen to some answers in Genesis from TJ Steadman.

Genesis interpretation in the Dead Sea Scrolls: the "Words of the Luminaries": (4Q504) and a "Paraphrase of Genesis and Exodus" (4Q422).
The Words of the Luminaries is a set of weekly liturgical prayers and the Paraphrase of Genesis and Exodus is in the genre of "rewritten Bible," perhaps used as or with a homily. These are excellent texts to investigate how the people of Qumran and other Jews were thinking about the creation account. What aspects were they bringing out for use and application outside Scripture? Some of the points might surprise us, and they can lead to some interesting conversation.
Bonus topic for this week: an encouragement for liturgical prayer!**Website: www.genesismarksthespot.com

The Dead Sea Scrolls were an amazing find for the study of the Bible and understanding the context of Jesus' time. They can also help shed light on the ways that the biblical text is used through time by different communities. This can help us understand this strange time we are in today, where we have so much information about the context of the Bible and we discover that historical interpretation is often quite different from interpretation at the time of the final form of the text.
Do you want to help others learn about the context of the Bible, and why that's important for our understanding of this ancient text? The people in our churches who might feel like this is a threat to their faith might actually have a kind of point that we need to acknowledge, so maybe there's a better way we can help curb our tendencies to be too forceful and to understand where others are in their views. By understanding people better, we can then communicate to them better, and better communication is the key to better community. I hope this episode is a blessing to you as you try to teach and communicate the truths of Scripture to others.**Website: www.genesismarksthespot.com
