Pastor Ryan loves the Bible and winter sports in snowy Minnesota! Here is our interview with cross country skier and father on 6 kids as he tells us about nurturing the members of his local church, Emmaus Road Reformed Church in Edina, Minnesota.

The Tru316 Foundation (www.Tru316.com) is the home of The Eden Podcast with Bruce C. E. Fleming where we “true” the verse of Genesis 3:16. The Tru316 Message is that “God didn’t curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.” Once Genesis 3:16 is made clear the other passages on women and men become clear too. You are encouraged to access the episodes of Seasons 1-11 of The Eden Podcast for teaching on the seven key passages on women and men. Are you a reader? We invite you to get from Amazon the four books by Bruce C. E. Fleming in The Eden Book Series (Tru316.com/trubooks). Would you like to support the work of the Tru316 Foundation?

EARLY RELEASE! How have we missed what happened in Eden? It happens when we start by wrongly thinking Genesis 3 is about The Fall when it really is about The Attack and The Aftermath! Based on decades of research by Dr. Joy Fleming here is a sample sermon, that can also be used as a lesson plan, on WHAT ACTUALLY HAPPENED IN EDEN BACK IN THE BEGINNING!

What you will find here is (1) the distinction between the first-degree and the second-degree eater at the tree, (2) the differences God made in responding to these different levels of offense - including the serpent tempter's first-degree offenses, (3) mistakes made in thinking the woman was the more serious offender, and (4) the God didn't curse Eve (or Adam) or limit woman in any way.

Part 4 from Della Olson's book! No proof?? Not so! Author and historian Della Olson made a survey of the documentation of women in ministry in the Evangelical Free Church especially in the United States. Her friend and neighbor, Dr. Joy Fleming, reads final excerpts of her book for Part 4 of Della's book on The Eden Podcast.

Some have tried to deny women from leadership and public ministry in the Free Churches. This historic book from 1977 is available for download here: https://collections.carli.illinois.edu/digital/collection/tiu_efcalit/id/28312
