The Hope Podcast with Lina Abujamra

Dear Lina: Is it possible to be pro women in a complementarian church structure?

When it comes to gender roles in the church, Christians tend to adhere to one of two main approaches: complementarian or egalitarian. My goal in today’s podcast is not to make any direct contribution to those conversations but simply to answer a question related to women in complementarian churches.
P.S. Here's an article on a short evaluation of the two perspectives. 

Dear Lina: When is one filled with the Holy Spirit and what does it mean to be anointed?

Dear Lina: Who is the Holy Spirit and how can I experience him more?

The Holy Spirit is perhaps the least understood and least acknowledged member of the Trinity. However, His presence and work permeate the Old and New Testament, and He is the person of the Trinity who is most involved in our daily lives. Today’s podcast will serve to answer a question that I hope will help us know and understand the Holy Spirit better.

Dear Lina: Why are so many Christians caught up in conspiracy theories these days?

You can hardly open your social media these days without seeing a Christian has posted claims they cannot possibly know to be true. Conspiracy theories are not something new, but our technological age has allowed misinformation to grow and spread faster, and create much confusion, suspicion and tension. So, how are we to think about all the conspiracy theories that are being circulated, and how are we to have healthy conversations with people who believe in them?
