Balogh and Kuhn discuss this issue as fathers and theologians, focusing on the value of finding our identity in Christ. Today's podcast episode is a discussion of that letter. Balogh wrote a follow-up blog post / letter addressed to his daughter about how to navigate this sexualised society. In our last podcast we listened in to a discussion between Akos Balogh (CEO of The Gospel Coalition Australia) and Chase Kuhn (Director of the Centre for Christian Living) about their concerns for their sons and how to raise them to treat women well.

Upcoming event: Martyn Iles (Director of the Australia Christian Lobby) will be joining us for dinner and an open forum on Freedom of Religion (our next module in CEC) on Sunday 25 August, 6:15-8:30pm in the St Thomas' Memorial Hall. Rebecca has very kindly given us permission to republish the lecture here. It was a lecture she delievered at the 2019 National Conference of the Gospel Coalition in Indianapolis and it was called ‘4 Things Christians Must Reclaim’.

Simon also recommended that the CEC podcast play a lecture Rebecca gave. Our senior minister Simon Manchester wrote a bulletin letter last week that heartily commends her recent book Confronting Christianity. This set can also be used in conjunction with the Confronting Jesus Video Study, sold separately.This week is a special episode between our evangelism module and our freedom of religion module featuring Rebecca McLaughlin. The study guide features discussion questions organized into 9 lessons, with each lesson covering a chapter from the book. This Confronting Jesus book and study guide set is ideal for small groups and individuals looking to read the book and reflect further on the person and work of Christ. Providing biblical and historical context, she points to Jesus as a Jewish man, the Son of God, the promised King, a mighty healer, the greatest teacher, a lover of sinners, a suffering servant, a perfect sacrifice, and the universal Lord. In Confronting Jesus: 9 Encounters with the Hero of the Gospels, Rebecca McLaughlin dives into the 4 New Testament biographies of Jesus.
