Description:

On this episode of Knowing Faith, Jen Wilkin, JT English, and Kyle Worley talk about something that’s been getting a lot of buzz: complementarianism. What does it mean and how can we practice this well within the church?

Questions Covered in This Episode:

  • What is complementarianism?
  • Why do we care about this doctrine?
  • How should theological method play a role in the complementarianism discussion?
  • What arguments are put forward in regards to trinitarianism? 
  • Our views on complementarianism have to live in the tensions of scripture: What is New Testament preaching? How do we synthesize 1 Cor. 14 with 1 Tim. 2? What is the nature of authority?
  • What offices of the church are available to men?
  • What offices of the church are available to women?

Helpful Definitions:

  • Complementarianism: All humans, both male and female, have been created in God’s image. We share in dignity, power, authority, the mission of God; but men and women are not interchangeable; they are distinct.
  • Theological method: How do you appropriately draw conclusions from the bible. 
  • Eternal functional subordination: A position that subordinates the Son’s divine will to the Father’s divine will.
