  2. Gender Roles

    Gender Roles

    In the latest episode of our Religious Trauma series, we wanted to get to the bottom of where the idea of gender roles came from. We were curious as to why so many Christians have an understanding of gender roles that tends to be oppressive to women; we figured those ideas had to come from somewhere These ideas, then influenced the early church fathers, the early church fathers influenced the reformers, and the reformers influenced modern-day theologians.

    You Are What You Eat

    Episode 6: You Are What You Eat, is the second episode in our Religious Trauma Series, where we go into the SDA Health Message. Seventh-day Adventists claim that Ellen White was a "visionary" and was truly ahead of her time when it came to some of the health counsels she gave, and we're going to take a deeper look at that too.  Show Notes:-SDA Health Message overview -Ellen White major visions -Meat Pledge-Was Ellen White really ahead of her time?  -What were her contemporaries saying about this topic?

  4. Keeping up Appearances

    Keeping up Appearances

    This marks Episode 1 of our new series on religious trauma. **TRIGGER WARNING**  We’re going to be covering some pain points that have contributed (and continue to contribute) to religious trauma. We’ll cover the origin of those topics, what form they still take in the church today, and we’ll even have some bonus episodes with guest co-hosts. Some of the things you can expect in this series: the emphasis on outward appearance (this episode), diet/SDA health message, gender roles and obsession with hierarchy, the psychology behind religious trauma, and more.  Show notes/sources for this episode The intersection of outward appearance and theologyDress Reform: mentioned in video, as well as good sources for additional readinghttps://www.ministrymagazine.org/archive/1938/08/dress-reform-counselsno.-2http://www.remnantraiment.com/subpages/history.htmhttps://m.egwwritings.org/en/book/116.2416#2416https://www.nonegw.org/canright/can19.htmhttps://www.present-truth.org/13-Character/When%20God%20Asked%20Women.pdfhttp://www.sabbatismos.com/bible-studies-on-ellen-white/2nd-pillar-faithfulness-to-scripture/cq15-dress-reform-vision/#sthash.ldGfKvzp.IutAwMvM.dpbshttps://m.egwwritings.org/en/book/1455.2#2https://m.egwwritings.org/en/book/756.1024#1024A stumbling block: weaponizing ScriptureRomans 14:10-13Romans 14:11 Corinthians 8:4-10The Tyranny of the Weaker Brother: https://www.ministrymagazine.org/archive/2012/11/the-tyranny-of-the-weaker-brother Matthew 23:27-28Jesus was clearly interested in what is in our hearts- the inner self vs the outer appearance. One can “check off all the boxes” of what they think a Christian is supposed to “look like” but can be misrepresenting Christ with how they treat others, etc. Then this thought can also be weaponized.

  5. Ellen White vs Sola Scriptura

    Ellen White vs Sola Scriptura

    Is the Seventh-day Adventist Church protestant or not? Why do our members find it so easy to resort to cult mentality when it comes to EGW? We'll cover this here on our final episode of our Ellen White series!

It is not too late to change, and this reformation is what we should strive for

  6. Fundamentalism + Ellen White

    27/08/2023

    Fundamentalism + Ellen White

    When did the Seventh-day Adventist Church decide that it was a good idea to add Ellen White’s name to their fundamental beliefs? What was going on at the time leading up to that decision? What on earth went down in 1980?!! As we wrap up the Ellen White series (we have one more episode left), we grapple with the more modern history of the church, and prepare to talk about where we go from here in the final episode.

    Ellen's First Vision

    For this episode, we'll be taking a look at the main character of this series: Ellen G. White.

    Laying the Foundation

    Before we get into the "meat and potatoes" of our Ellen White series, we need to lay a foundation on where the Adventist Church came from so we can then talk about where we are today.  What do you hope we cover/discuss in this series on Ellen G White and Adventism?  Show Notes/Resources:-Memoirs of William Miller by Sylvester Bliss, 1853 -Daniel 8 : 13-14-Development of Seventh-day Adventist Theology, Merlin Burt, 2019-Matthew 24 : 36-Matthew 25 : 1-13-Orlando Squires, “Where is Heaven?,” Voice of the Shepherd, March 1845, 4, 5. -C.
