Women and the Gender of God, Hebrews, Inheritance | Amy Peeler

Dr. Amy Peeler, a biblical scholar and ordained priest, joins The Forum Podcast for a fascinating conversation on theology, Scripture, and how we talk about God. As a professor at Wheaton College, Dr. Peeler has spent years studying the book of Hebrews, exploring its themes of inheritance, sonship, and divine language. In this episode, led by Dr. Danny Daley, Associate Professor in New Testament at Calvin Seminary, she discusses how the New Testament dramatically shifts the language of God’s fatherhood and what that means for believers today. They also dive into her book, Women and the Gender of God, which examines how Scripture portrays both the fatherhood of God and the role of women in the biblical narrative. Through careful exegesis and theological reflection, Dr. Peeler challenges misconceptions and invites listeners to think more deeply about the ways we speak about God. Whether you’re interested in biblical studies, theology, or the role of women in church history, this episode offers thought-provoking insights into the richness of the biblical text.
