   A Better Way to Read the Bible with Hakeem Bradley

   How do we actually read the Bible better? In this episode of Teaology, Maya Wilson sits down with Bible scholar and teacher Hakeem Bradley to talk about how to study the Bible, biblical context, reading Scripture in community, and understanding the Bible as one interconnected story. Many Christians have been taught to approach Scripture one verse at a time—but what happens when we step back and pay attention to the historical context, literary context, recurring themes, patterns, and larger story of the Bible? Hakeem explains why understanding the Bible doesn't require becoming a biblical scholar, why verses make more sense when we understand the stories they belong to, and why Scripture was never meant to be read as an isolated collection of inspirational quotes. We also talk about studying the Bible with other people, recovering a sense of wonder when reading Scripture, and what biblical knowledge is supposed to produce in us. Because the goal of studying Scripture isn't simply to know more information—it's to become people who love God and love our neighbors more deeply. In this episode: • How to read the Bible better • How to study the Bible in context • Understanding historical and cultural context • Why reading individual Bible verses can be limiting • Reading the Bible as one larger story • Biblical patterns and themes • Why Scripture should be read in community • How to study the Bible without being a scholar • Moving from biblical knowledge to spiritual formation • Recovering wonder when reading Scripture If you've ever wondered whether you're actually understanding the Bible—or simply reading the verses you've always been taught to read—this conversation is for you.

   Does God Want Me to Have an Orgasm? | Sex, Pleasure & Purity Culture with Kristen Miele

   What if purity culture taught us how to avoid sex—but never taught us how to understand our bodies? In this episode of Teaology at the Table, Maya Wilson sits down with Kristen Miele, founder of Sex Ed Reclaimed, to talk about Christian sexuality, purity culture, body theology, sexual health, pornography, marriage, pleasure, and sexual formation. Rather than treating sexuality as a topic Christians should avoid, this conversation asks what it looks like to develop a healthier Christian theology of the body—one that recognizes our bodies and sexuality as part of God's good creation while still taking Christian sexual ethics seriously. Maya and Kristen discuss the ways purity culture has shaped how Christians understand sex and their bodies, why silence isn't the same thing as sexual formation, how pornography and media influence our understanding of sexuality, and why conversations about sex should be part of Christian discipleship rather than something we only address when there is a problem. They also talk about marriage, communication, pleasure, and how parents and churches can create spaces where children and adults can ask honest questions about bodies and sexuality without shame. In this episode: • Christian sexuality and sexual formation • What purity culture gets wrong • A Christian theology of the body • Bodies and sexuality as God's good creation • Sex education and Christian discipleship • Pornography and media • Marriage and communication • Pleasure and Christian sexuality • Talking about sex without shame • Helping Christians develop a healthier view of their bodies If you've ever wondered how Christians can talk about sex in a way that is honest, theological, embodied, and rooted in the goodness of God, this conversation is for you.

   How to Build a Trauma-Informed Church with Micah Morgan

   What would happen if churches learned to listen before defending themselves? In this episode of Teaology, Maya Wilson sits down with Micah Morgan, a licensed clinical professional counselor and associate pastor, to explore the intersection of mental health, trauma, church hurt, pastoral ministry, and healing. Micah shares about their journey into both counseling and pastoral ministry and why they believe churches need to become more informed about trauma and mental health. Together, Maya and Micah discuss what happens when people experience church as a source of emotional or spiritual harm, and why leaders should respond with curiosity and listening rather than defensiveness. They also explore what it means to build a trauma-informed church, including practical ways churches can create safer systems and spaces, make room for congregants to speak honestly, and learn about trauma even when they don't have a mental-health professional on staff. The conversation challenges the idea that mental-health struggles are moral or spiritual failures and explores why healing may take time. Maya and Micah also discuss the relationship between therapy and pastoral care, when pastors should refer people to clinicians, and why setting boundaries is essential for sustainable ministry. This is a conversation about mental health and Christianity, church hurt, trauma-informed ministry, pastoral care, therapy and faith, healing, boundaries, and building healthier Christian communities.
