Ezer Uncaged Podcast

In this episode, Lauren and Sarah take on a Desiring God article regarding female friendships. True to form, Ezer breaks all of the rules that DG lays out as warning signs of idolatry when it comes to having a female confidant.    "We are the women pastor's warned you about"... and... unfortunate articles written by other women... 

Aaaaand...we're back! In this episode, Lauren and Sarah kick off season three catching up with what they've been up to during the show's brief hiatus. The girls reminisce about Lauren's ordination and Sarah's excellent kite flying skills, then hop into a discussion about where Ezer is headed next: female sexuality and the current sexual/relational trends hitting our culture. Strap in. Strap on. You're in for a ride!

Years ago, Lauren ripped apart "The Excellent Wife" by Martha Peace in her masters thesis, while Sarah was being ripped apart by this book on the ground level in fundamentalism. In this episode, academia and lady laity meet to form a discussion from both angles.

In this episode, Lauren and Sarah sit down with Kate Hanch to discuss whether there is a confidence gap between the genders in writing.

Sarah and Lauren discuss the good gift that is female sexuality, including attraction, desire, orgasm, and masturbation in contrast to the way lust stems out of our sexual brokenness.

Lauren and Sarah recently had an interesting twitter conversation with our friend, Danielle Larson, over some outlandish comments made by a well-known complementarian blogger. We decided to recreate and expound this conversation for our listeners.

We discuss the concept of death to life; the death of dependence on our own abilities and the gospel which gives us the freedom to live as image bearers apart from facades.

In this episode, Lauren and Sarah interview their friend, blogger, and fellow podcaster, Blake Collier, on Horror films and gender.

Lauren and Sarah discuss Paul's view of women in 1 Timothy 2 and answer the question of modesty; and whether or not Paul sets up a blanket prohibition against women preaching or holding leadership roles in the church. We also answer the question, "How are women preserved through childbirth?"

Lauren and Sarah discuss Paul's view of women in Ephesians 5. We take a look at the difference between the terms submission and subordination - along with the Greek meaning behind the word "head". What does it look like to lay down one's life for another human being?

We chat about the theology behind complementarianism, it's dangers which lead to abuse, and loneliness for both genders.
