How do we make sense of Genesis in the 21st century?
Welcome back to another season of With All Due Respect, where your hosts, Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen, tackle tricky topics with respect and grace.
To kick things off, celebrated author Marilynne Robinson joins the show to discuss her new book Reading Genesis, which looks at God’s covenant with humanity – despite how dark things get.
Our hosts then share their thoughts on the first book of the Bible and look at other recent attempts to understand it – notably Jordan Peterson’s musings in his latest work, We Who Wrestle With God.

With All Due Respect is hosted by Megan Powell du Toit and Michael Jensen. It is part of the Undeceptions podcast network.
Less aggro, more conversation.
Is it even possible to have a deep discussion without it descending into chaos? Michael Jensen and Megan Powell du Toit think yes, and want to show the rest of us how to do it.
There’s plenty of things they disagree on: free will, feminism, where you should send your kids to school and what type of church you should go to. But there are also plenty of other things that they have in common. They want to talk about all these things with conviction. But they also want the conversation to be constructive. Tune in to find out if that’s possible.
