    S7 E7 | Dr. Holly J. Carey | The Cross of Christ in the Book of Mark
    Oct 12 2026
    In this episode of The Alabaster Jar, Dr. Lynn kicks off a 4-part episode series on the Cross of Christ with Dr. Holly J. Carey as they explore the Passion narrative in the Gospel of Mark. They discuss how Mark’s fast-paced story leads to the cross, the shame of crucifixion, and Jesus’s predictions of his death and resurrection. Dr. Carey explains how Psalm 22 illuminates Jesus’s cry from the cross and points to vindication through resurrection. They also consider the unexpected response to Jesus’s entry into Jerusalem and the faithful women whose witness connects the cross to the empty tomb.

    S7 E6 | Teresa I. Whitman | Faith, Fear & the Future of AI: Why the Church Must Engage
    Oct 5 2026
    In this episode of The Alabaster Jar, Dr. Lynn Cohick talks with pastor and author Teresa I. Whitman about faith, theology, and artificial intelligence. They explore how AI works, the challenges of distinguishing AI-generated content, and concerns ranging from deception to data centers’ impact on communities. Whitman shares why she co-wrote Faith and AI: Theology in the Age of Thinking Machines with Claude and why she believes Christians and churches should engage thoughtfully rather than respond with fear or avoidance. Together, they consider AI’s limits in matters of prayer and pastoral care—and the importance of discernment, Scripture, and keeping God at the center.

  • S7 E5 | Dr. Carmen Imes | Fierce and Faithful: Rediscovering the Women of the Bible for Our Kids

    S7 E5 | Dr. Carmen Imes | Fierce and Faithful: Rediscovering the Women of the Bible for Our Kids
    Sep 28 2026
    In this episode of The Alabaster Jar, Dr. Lynn Cohick talks with Dr. Carmen Imes about Fierce and Faithful, a new kids’ book she co-authored with Dr. Nijay Gupta, highlighting 25 women of the Bible who dared to trust God. Carmen shares why children need more than “flannelgraph” versions of Scripture and how scholarly, historically grounded storytelling—complete with maps, sidebars, and name pronunciations—can still be fun and accessible for ages 8–12.

    They also explore how the book tackles difficult themes like violence, injustice, and civil disobedience through stories of women such as Deborah, Jael, Hagar, and the enslaved girl in Naaman’s household. Carmen also reflects on how women like Huldah and Mary Magdalene reshaped her own understanding of women’s roles in ministry and why it matters that girls (and boys) grow up knowing these stories.
