WeTalkDifferent

Welcome to our first series of 2020. We still flyin' loose! Ashley, Elijah, and Ryan begin by tackling definitions of terms. Because language is a socially constructed component of our experience, the WTD Crew wants to talk through how they define certain words and phrases, cause if we're wrestling with it we figure y'all are too. So this series is our first formal attempt to breakdown many of the terms we use and how they interact with race, ethnicity, gender in culture, politics, and theology.

Kat Armstrong (@katarmstrong1) joins the WTD Crew to talk about her new book No More Holding Back. In it she examines how many women feel conflicted about Jesus’s calling on their lives because a woman trying to love God with all her heart, soul, mind and strength, can be thought of as crossing an unspoken boundary. Kat asks, “Why am I allowing limitations on my pursuit of Jesus’s calling?” And how did we come to gender the Great Commission?
