Humanity is perhaps the most pressing doctrinal issue today. Katie McCoy, co-author of the new book Humanity, believes that a proper understanding of humanity has massive implications for science, sexuality, race, economics and more. She and Sean discuss why God originally made us male and female, if the Bible teaches corporate responsibility for sins our ancestors committed, the state of the debate over evolution, and much more.
Katie McCoy serves as director of Women’s Ministry at Texas Baptists (Baptist General Convention of Texas). She holds a Ph.D. from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, where she previously served on faculty. She is the author of To Be A Woman and the co-author of Humanity.
