Silenced No More: Abuse in the OPC, Part 5

Sons of Patriarchy

1:14:43

Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying mathematical concepts that power modern machine learning, to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives–even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves? And what challenges remain before AI systems can truly operate with agency? If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Meet Rachel Curtiss, former member of Cities Church in St. Paul, Minnesota, and Cait West, former member of the PCA, RPCNA, and OPC in Pennsylvania and Colorado.
Rachel was publicly excommunicated by Joe Rigney (now at Christ Church Moscow) because she left an abusive marriage and church. Cait West, author of the book Rift, was entrenched in the "stay-at-home-daughter" movement, and managed to escape. They have both found their voice.

Karen ties in every theme of Sons of Patriarchy Season 1, gives language to those searching and hurting, a listening ear to those who want to speak out, and the compassion to speak into those lives who have been destroyed by leaders of the church. May the end of Season 1 give you hope, peace, understanding, and the courage to move forward in the grace of the Savior. Because Jesus himself understands what you went through, are going through, and will go through. A sympathetic redeemer who heals you. Find Karen here .

In this episode I spoke with Colleen McConnell, former member of St. Paul's Presbyterian Church (PCA) in Orlando, Florida, and Megan Owen , founder of Mountain City Christian Counseling , who was formerly counseled by Jim Wilson, Doug Wilson's late father. Colleen's story shares similarities with every story we have profiled save one difference, she won her case in the PCA. So we look into when women "win," what that means for their relationship with the church and its leadership, as well as their marriages (or former marriages). Megan (and her family) were horrifically abused by her ex-husband, and you'll hear what kind of counsel came from the mouth of Jim, which then starts making more sense of Doug. The apple doesn't fall far from the tree. Because for these men and leaders, a woman who's too opinionated needs to be put her in place. Below them. Donate to help the survivor network ⁠⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠⁠ .

Need help? Contact ⁠⁠⁠Outreach Incorporated⁠⁠⁠ . In this episode we spoke with Sheila Wray Gregoire, founder of Bare Marriage and the author of many books, and Marissa Burt, author of the upcoming Brazos Press book The Myth of Good Christian Parenting: How False Promises Betrayed a Generation of Evangelical Families. Dominion theology begets dominating over families. Sex becomes a conquering act, not the beautiful union of a man and a woman who love one another. Women are receptacles for the pleasure of men, marriage a plan for taking over the world, and spanking kids the key to obedience and warriors in the quiver of the father. Mothers required only because they’re needed for the birth, not because they contribute anything, but because men can’t do it on their own. Sex is beautiful, families are beautiful, and children are beautiful. But none of these are ultimate. All of these are wonderful blessings of God. But none are tools for our gain.The Savior who laid his claim to rule to be put under the rule asks us to do the same.

This time we have Beth Allison Barr (James Vardaman Professor of History at Baylor University, and author of numerous books), Sheila Wray Gregoire (founder of Bare Marriage, and author of numerous books), Cait West (yes, again!), and Hannah Oliver. The men are trained as leaders, and the women, as followers. The virtuous woman *only* stays at home, homeschools her children, satisfies her husband, and makes sure there's no ugliness in her. They are to stay silent, unless, of course, they've been approved to teacher other women to... stay silent. You can speak, as long as you tell other women not to. At the same time women are more liable to deceit than their male counterparts they also hold the power to cause their brothers to stumble. It's a whiplash, a system wherein you're told to be feminine, but not too feminine, smart, but not too smart, put together, but not independent. In summary, it's impossible. A standard you can never live up to. But there's another way, the way of Jesus. He who gladly took a rank below his, to give you a rank above yours.

Caroline McKuen is the director and founder of the Presbyterian Advocacy Coalition. For too long these cases and stories have been covered up, whether that be for "lack of evidence," or "sinful, but not criminal," or "undue gossip." Women have been silenced (as have some men), men have been coerced (as have some women), presbyteries have turned a blind eye, and the "good" men in authority, and the churches they pastor do nothing while people suffer.

In this episode I spoke with repeat guest Cait West , a woman whose marriage and church ( FBC Beggs in Beggs, Oklahoma, led by pastor Chris Gore) was taken over by the patriarchy, and Zach Wagner (author of "Non-Toxic Masculinity") about the Patriarchy. Patriarchy is not only toxic for the women subjugated under it, it's an impossible system for the men to exercise. It's a reaction to the perceived feminization of the church, of culture, and of society. It's an ideology wherein it's not enough to *be* a man, you must *do* manly things to prove it. And therein lies the problem, an identity wrapped up in performance rather than the gospel.
