Are Women Marginalized in the Bible? What Scripture Actually Shows (S3E4)

Before we turn our attention to the biblical practice of gratitude, we pause to widen the lens through which we consider faith, Scripture, and the story God is telling. In this episode of The Christian Clinician, Dr. Tanya Paynter is joined by Old Testament scholar Dr. Ingrid Faro to discuss her newest book Redeeming Eden: How Women in Scripture Advance the Story of Salvation. This conversation widens the lens through which we consider faith and health by looking carefully at how Scripture tells its story—and whose voices are often overlooked. Drawing from Hebrew language and narrative theology, Dr. Faro explains how women in the Bible are not peripheral figures, but central participants in God’s redemptive work. From Eve and Sarah to Rahab, Ruth, Tamar, and Bathsheba, these stories reveal patterns of faithfulness, courage, suffering, and restoration that shape the larger story of salvation. Together, Dr. Paynter and Dr. Faro also address difficult themes in Scripture, including trauma, abuse of power, repentance, and healing. Rather than flattening these passages or avoiding their weight, this episode models a careful, compassionate approach to reading the Bible that takes both the text and lived experience seriously. This episode is especially for you if you’ve wrestled with how women are portrayed in the Bible, felt unsettled by difficult Old Testament passages, or desire a deeper reading of Old Testament Scripture.
