Our daily lives are inundated with ideas. The question we must ask ourselves is, how can we think critically about these ideas in order to identify what is bright with the light of truth, beautiful by a perfect standard, wise with the fear of the Lord, and wonderful in true virtue? Hosted by Jenna DiPrima and Lydia Schaible, All Things Bright and Beautiful is a discussion of life, books, and theology from a confessionally reformed Christian perspective. Our goal is to encourage listeners to read widely, think deeply, and engage in conversations that matter. New episodes every other Tuesday.

34. Feminism and "The Genesis of Gender" by Abigail Favale

In this episode we discuss Abigail Favale’s book The Genesis of Gender. We give a quick survey of feminism and defend why we believe Christians cannot embrace Feminism. We talk about postmodernism, embodiment, consumerist sex, the incarnation and divine revelation. In addition, we touch on transgenderism and the influence of social media. Finally we end with the goodness of the givenness of our gender and the hope of the gospel.
