Description: Greg talks about what we can learn from the account of David and Goliath, then he answers questions about the divide between men and women, whether a contractor should turn down work on a Buddhist temple, and determining if a passage is descriptive or prescriptive.   Topics: Commentary: What we can learn from the account of David and Goliath (08:00) Why does it seem like there’s such a divide between men and women today? (19:00) Do you think I was right to turn down a request to build a large water feature for a Buddhist temple, in which there will be a Buddhist statue in the center of a reflection pool? (47:00) When should passages be interpreted as descriptive rather than prescriptive (e.g., when it comes to head coverings)?
