Imagine a marriage free from the "crushing weight of gendered performance." The Gospel doesn't just offer hope; it offers freedom—freedom to serve, lead, and love in partnership, united under the single, perfect authority of King Jesus.

What if the biblical pattern for marriage isn't hierarchy, but profound mutuality and partnership? From the very beginning of creation to the radical equality of the New Creation in Christ, Scripture points to a collaborative dance under the sole leadership of Jesus.

The weight of expectation can be crushing, especially when it comes to spiritual leadership defined by rigid roles. Are Christian men being set up for guilt and inadequacy by unbiblical standards?

Preached at the annual Presbyterian Women’s Winter Festival last night with these remarkable women accompanying me. They asked me to preach on Hannah’s Prayer - I’m not sure they were prepared for my non-pastel-pink version.
