LWA: Courtney Doctor on the New Testament

This month on MARKED, we’re doing a fun new miniseries all about Lifeway Women Academy. Each episode of this series will release on Wednesdays, and Elizabeth Woodson joins Elizabeth Hyndman to talk to a Lifeway Women Academy teacher about her journey into theological education and how studying theology has marked her in her walk with Christ. For the last episode of our Lifeway Women Academy miniseries, we talked to Courtney Doctor. Courtney taught Romans and Paul’s letters to church leaders in our New Testament Survey course. These books are packed with theological issues, so we asked Courtney what advice she would give to someone when she comes to a passage that is either difficult or has multiple interpretations. Listen in to our conversation to hear her wise counsel!RESOURCES:Covenant Theological SeminaryDallas Theological SeminaryIn View of God’s Mercies: The Gift of the Gospel in Romans Bible Study Book by Courtney DoctorLifeway Women AcademyLWA: New Testament SurveyMARKED is a podcast from Lifeway Women: https://women.lifeway.com/blog/podcasts/.Hosted by Elizabeth Woodson and Elizabeth Hyndman.RECOMMENDED: Check out our interview with DeeDee Williams on how she is passionate about studying the Old Testament and why it’s important for women to understand and see the beauty in the Old Testament as well as the New.ABOUT COURTNEY DOCTORCourtney is an author and Bible teacher.
