I'm Kelley Mathews and I am delighted today to host Dr. Sandra Glahn, a longtime friend and colleague. And she's a seminary professor. But today we're going to talk to her in her context of being the co-founder of the Visual Museum of Women in Christianity. Welcome. Dr. Glahn >> Thank you. My pleasure. Kelley >> This is fun. Yeah. So today we're going to talk about something old, really old. And archaeology is a big part of biblical studies that gives us lots of background. And there have been some discoveries in recent years that really apply to women in particular. So tell us what we all heard of the Dead Sea Scrolls or most of us probably. And those were discovered decades ago and they've really revealed a lot. What are people saying is the biggest discovery since then? Dr. Glahn >> Since then. So it's a floor that was found in Megiddo, which is connected with Armageddon. That's where you hear the "magid" in there. So it's not just notorious. It's also known for some great stuff in church history and in biblical history. And some folks were digging in a prison courtyard and came upon a preserved floor that's a beautiful stone mosaic. And the thing I love about mosaics is they can look like they were set yesterday, whereas a fresco fades, a statue usually in 2000 years, loses a nose or an arm, or archer loses a bow or whatever. But the mosaics are much more preserved. And this floor was intentionally preserved. So it was clear that it was hidden for a reason, but it was intended to hide it for a long lasting preservation. So it wasn't just covered over with sand and dirt as the years went by, it was more like a plaster-ish substance that said, “We want to protect this, but we want to hide it.” So I should probably back up and tell you what in the world I do. I'm a seminary professor who mostly teach writing and all those hard verses about women in the Bible. What do I have to do with archaeology? And because that will be relevant in what we talk about. So one of the courses I teach at a seminary level is medieval art and spirituality. And we take men and women to Italy for about 17 to 19 days every other summer and look at the visual record of the church. That is particularly relevant for women because often when we teach church h...

  • Making the Complex Simple

    Making the Complex Simple
    2025/09/23
    Dr. Nika Spaulding Dr. Kay Daigle Dr. Nika Spaulding makes the complex simple for everyday people. In this episode she joins Dr. Kay Daigle to discuss the first booklet in her series Theology in 10. Her purpose is to help us all easily understand theological issues. Her first booklet tackles the topic of the Trinity. It's hard to grasp, but Nika finds a way to simplify it so that all believers not only understand it but also apply this truth in real life. Don't miss Nika's easy explanation of the series and this topic. If you want to dig deeper into understanding the Trinity, consider ordering one of the resources that Nika suggests below.

TranscriptKay >> Hi. I'm Kay Daigle of Beyond Ordinary Women Ministries. I'm here today with Nika Spaulding. Welcome, Nika. Nika >> Thanks, Kay. Kay >> And welcome to all of you out there. We're so glad that you joined us for this conversation. We're going to be talking about theology for everyday people. And let me tell you just a little bit about Nika, why she is an expert in theology. She has a DMin in New Testament. And she also has a master's of theology from DTS. And she is a storyteller and a theologian. And I've heard her described herself as actually a Bible nerd. Nika >> That's so true. Yeah. Kay >> So those are things that I know about Nika. And she has been working on a new project, Theology in 10. I'll let her tell you about that. But it is that theology for everyday people that she has come up with. And so I really want to talk about all those things. And I could but first, I really thought, particularly since we're talking about you as the theologian and theology, that maybe some people don't know anything really about you. So tell us a little bit about your background and why you got into theology in the first place. Nika >> Yeah, it's such a good question. So I didn't grow up in the church, so the fact that I'm like now a Doctor of Ministry in the New Testament is like more shocking maybe to me than anyone. So I actually have a science background. I grew up in a non-Christian home. My parents are believers now. I grew up in a great home. I loved my family. But theology was this really foreign thing to me! This like I knew that books existed. I knew that theology was like a discipline, like zoology, which is my bachelor's degree or like psychology or all of these things. But I got to college and I thought for sure I was going to be a doctor because I love science and I wanted to help people. But to this day, if I see blood or vomit, I get weak in the knees and I pass out like till this day. And I knew this even going into college. So. Oh, yeah, everybody with common sense kept going “Maybe you should pick a different career,” but I didn't have enough common sense at 18. So eventually I realized, Okay, I'm not going to make it through medical school. So now what? And that started me on a journey of trying to figure out what is it that God was calling me to do. At that point, I was walking with the Lord faithfully.

  • Questions about Prayer

    Questions about Prayer
    2025/09/09
    Kay Daigle Claudia McGuire Most if not all of us have had questions about prayer at some point in our lives. Perhaps yours were never answered or the answers you heard didn't satisfy your curiosity. If so, this episode is for you. BOW Ministry Team Member Claudia McGuire is here to help. Don't miss her insightful and helpful conversation with Kay Daigle. This episode is also available on video. Other resources on prayer “Practical Prayer Solutions” with Kay Daigle & Kelly Arabie “Prayer & Obedience” with Claudia McGuire Book: Prayer: How to Have a Conversation with God by Rosalind Rinker Timestamps: 00:21 Introductions 02:01 Prayer is hard for many reasons. 04:23 Why pray? 08:27 Is there a right or wrong way to pray? 11:34 Why did the disciples ask Jesus how to pray? 16:01 Why are my prayers not answered? 21:33 What role does faith play in prayer? 27:20 What is intercessory prayer? 31:02 Is there a prayer that God doesn't answer? 34:51 Does Jesus pray for us? 38:28 Do we need to work hard to be heard? 48:25 Other prayer resources TranscriptKay >> Hi. I am Kay Daigle. I'd like to welcome you to this episode of the Beyond Ordinary Women Podcast. Today I'm talking with Claudia McGuire. Welcome, Claudia. Claudia >> Thank you. Kay >> Claudia spent years on staff at a church in Plano, Texas, at Chase Oaks, and she now still does Bible teaching, and she speaks at retreats, leadership, training, conferences—whatever. And we are so glad that she is one of our BOW Ministry Team members. So she's not really a guest, but she is a co-worker in this ministry. And it's been a privilege to know Claudia since we were in seminary together. Claudia >> Thank you. You, too. I feel the same. Kay >> Yes. So today we're going to talk about prayer. We've talked about prayer previously, and we're going to talk a little bit about prayer today. We're going to talk about your Prayer Questions Answered. So if you have had a question, possibly Claudia will answer that question today because I think she's come up with some general questions that a lot of people ask. Is that right, Claudia? Claudia >> I think so. I've heard these questions. And then I've also just thought through these seem like logical questions to me. Some of them are kind of seem harder than others, but I think they're all relevant. Right? Kay >> Right. I totally agree. Claudia >> So I just have observed that over the years, as I've been in Bible study or led Bible study or been in small groups, or mission groups or, you know, all kinds of situations like that with I should say, fellow Christians, fellow Christ followers, I've just observed that there are people who seem to be uncomfortable with praying, right? Kay >> Yes. Claudia >> So just praying, just uncomfortable with it. Even if maybe they've been a part of your group for quite a while. Or even if maybe they've known the Lord for quite a while, there's this uncomfortable thing that happens. And, you know, not to call on them when it's prayer time and whatever situation you're in. Some don't like to pray aloud. I'm not saying that they don't pray. That some don't like to pray aloud. They just don't like that. Kay >> Yep. Claudia >> And some people are uncomfortable when other people pray. Like, I just kind of sense that sometimes from people. And then some others don't. We kind of touched on this in another recording that we did, but some others don't want to share requests because they feel God's not going to hear me, this isn't worth his time. Nobody wants to hear this or it's just something that I'm not ready to put out there before people, which is I understand that. So maybe we can address some of this mystery that seems to surround prayer or at least have a discussion of things that might keep us from praying in all kinds of situations. And hopefully as a result of this, that we who pray out loud or don't have a problem with prayer might disc...
