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?

Penny Preaches?? The Authors tell us all about this great children's book! Jun 14, 2026

Show notes

Are role models important to children who feel God's call to ministry?? Many have said so. Penny Preaches is about the little girl named Penny and how she learned to trust God's call in her life. We interview Rob and Amy Dixon about the story behind their book and its publication. Make sure to get one and share it with the girls you know! From IVF Kids publications.

Amy Dixon grew up as one of seven siblings, so the only peace and quiet she ever got was inside a book. Once she had her own kids, she rediscovered her love for picture books at the public library. It was the one place she knew all four of her kids would be happy . . . and quiet. She writes from her home, where she lives with her four little inspirations and her marathon-running husband, Rob.

Rob is also the author of Allies in Ministry: How Men Can Support Women in God’s Mission.

Helping Men Become Allies for Women in Ministry -- Dr. Rob Dixon May 31, 2026

Show notes

Some people insist women can’t use their spiritual gifts in ministry. They won’t listen to alternate views. How to help them see that they deviate from Scripture? We asked Dr. Rob Dixon and he pointed us to his recent book, Allies in Ministry: How Men Can Support Women in God’s Mission, IVP Academic, 2026.

Rob has served on InterVarsity Christian Fellowship staff for almost thirty years. He also teaches at Fuller Theological Seminary and Fresno Pacific University. In his free time, Rob goes on long runs, cheers for the L.A. Dodgers, and plays as much pickleball as possible.

He is also the author of Together in Ministry: Women and Men in Flourishing Partnerships. He is the coauthor with his wife, Amy, of the children's picture book Penny Preaches - God Gives Good Gifts to Everyone!.

1 Tim 2.13-14 Creation Order? No. Eligible for Ministry? Yes! May 17, 2026

Show notes

CREATION ORDER in 1 Timothy 2:13-15a? Not at all! This passage is about ELIGIBILITY FOR CORRECTION. Eve and Paul were both second degree offenders who found mercy from God and were used in ministry. She as mother of the Promised Savior. He as Apostle to the Gentiles.

These insights challenge foundational Complementarian mistakes.
