In this episode, Fr Geoffrey and Fr Yuri tackle the topic "Sex & Gender" as they continue to run the issues chosen by our patrons through the improvisation model we've explored in this series. This method allows us to take on a certain way of being in which we faithfully, in every moment, live the fullness of the tradition we have received in the first three acts and which directs us towards the fifth and final act.
When it comes to sex and gender, there are so many offers on the table, with unclear and changing definitions, and no scientific or sociological consensus, never mind a theological one. Ultimately, however, every single one of those offers should be capable of being received and framed in the story of God.
The offer on the table today is: "Men and women, although biologically different, should not be constrained by gendered roles in society or expectations of behaviour and personality." Most today would accept and agree with this egalitarian view, although many Christians would block in favour of a complementarian view. How then do we move to over-accept this offer in light of what we have received from the first three acts and with the knowledge of what is to come?
