When Narratives Collide Rachael Frase

An ordinary story in a time of loss, grief and bitterness that uncovers the reality of an extraordinary God. The story of Ruth happened during one of the darkest periods of Israel’s history and yet it is in this story that hope sparks a light that shines brightly, redeeming more than just a families story but the entire nation of Israel and bringing us an even greater redeemer in Christ.

Join us as we explore the life of Deborah. Often an overlooked leader within the Bible and yet a standard of leadership that should no longer be ignored. She defied cultural expectation and yet was recognized as prophetess, judge, warrior, defender of the oppressed and teacher of Israel. Don’t miss out on a deeper look at her life and what we can learn from her story.

A leader, a prophet, a teacher and a bit of a rebel all encapsulate the story of Miriam. This is a story that is often diminished within Scripture. This episode gives emphasis to Miriam's life and helps resurrect her voice.

Historically Eve has been used as the means to justify oppression and subordination of women but is that what the Bible truly points us towards? Join us as we look at the historical worldview that has shaped our perceptions of Eve while also looking at her story in Scripture. Is there anything we can learn from her story?

This is the origin story for When Narratives Collide. We will talk about 3 core elements that we want to engage in through the podcast. First we want to look at how we engage in the skepticism of the Bible. Secondly we want to bridge the disconnect between our story and God's story. And lastly how authentic conversations and asking the hard questions builds real community.
