What price do we pay in each case?* How do complementarians rationalize listening to female academics (such as those on your podcast) when they say Biblically women can't teach men?* “1 Tim 2:11: ‘A woman should learn in quietness and full submission.’ Once culturally liberating, now often restrictive—how do you handle that tension?”* In Eph 5, ppl teach about men & women like it transcends culture over time, but the bit on slaves is taught differently. How can we know how to differentiate?* How should the fact that Jesus chose 12 male Jewish apostles inform this question?* What is the complementarian rationale for keeping male/female distinctions while no longer keeping slave/free and Jew/Greek distinctions in Gal. 3:28?* Paul says, “ I do not permit a women to teach” he didn’t Say “God does not allow a women to teach” do you make anything about this being a “Paul” command

Check out all the questions Preston tackled on today’s episode:
* What are your thoughts on spiritual gifts, cessationism vs continuationism?
* Should Protestants read the deuterocanonical books even if they don't agree they are inspired?
* What are your thoughts on Open Theism?
* Many people are converting to Catholicism and Pentecostalism. Do you have a theory for why these denominations are particularly reaching people in this time?
* Have you ever heard of the miracle of the holy fire? How should western Christians think about and relate to traditions and rituals in the eastern church?
* Matt. 16:19, 18:18. What does Jesus mean here: “Whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.”?
* If events/people in Gen. 1-11 weren't "real," what about the Noahic covenant, genealogies, doctrines, etc based on them?
* Creative ideas for how we can biblically engage with pride month? In the past we have done prayer walks but that is kind of behind the scenes.
* Is marriage always to be officiated in public with witnesses? In other words, if vows were made privately does that count biblically as marriage?
* What unique challenges do you think a father faces when raising a daughter, and how should he address them?
