‘A Christian Account of the Sexes in Conversation’ Course

~ Alastair Roberts ~ Leave a comment

Today is the last day my forthcoming Davenant Hall ‘A Christian Account of the Sexes in Conversation’ course is open for (late) registration. If you are interested in taking the course, you need to act now!

Within the course we will be developing a Christian account of man and woman, in conversation with an array of diverse texts and interlocutors from several different fields and realms of enquiry, both academic and popular—philosophy, biology, the social sciences, etc.

The course follows on from previous courses I’ve taught on ‘A Biblical Theology of the Sexes’ and ‘Man and Woman in Modernity’, while also standing alone. Its goal is to show how a Christian account of the sexes can enter into receptive yet principled dialogue with other fields.

The course runs for ten weeks of two-hour classes and is open to auditors. Videos of each class will be made available to every student who signs up, but are exclusive to them. If you don’t sign up for the class, you miss the opportunity!

How to Disagree Without Losing Your Mind (on the That’ll Preach Podcast)

I was recently invited onto the That’ll Preach Podcast to discuss ways to reform our discourse. Take a listen!

Reforming Without Radicalism (Replay) — with Brad Littlejohn – That’ll Preach

Everyone talks about polarization in America—political, cultural, and even within the church. Reactivity has become the norm, and with it, a quiet anxiety that shapes how Christians think, argue, and divide. So where do we turn for wisdom when disagreement feels unavoidable? In this reposted conversation, Dr. Brad Littlejohn introduces us to Richard Hooker, a Reformed Anglican theologian who navigated deep tensions during the Reformation between Presbyterians and Episcopalians. Hooker offers a model for holding conviction without radicalism, and reform without hubris. We explore how Hooker sought to combine the theological clarity of Protestantism with the formative power of historic liturgy—and why his approach speaks directly to our present moment of social change and gridlock. This episode is a timely reminder that faithful reform requires patience, humility, and a refusal to let anxiety drive the church.
