S2E20 | Kat on Abiding in Christ Oct 08, 2020

Show notes

It has been a bit since we released an episode and that is because Josh has been on a road trip and behind on the podcast. We are back today with a new episode though! Mary and Josh are talking with Kat LaPrairie about abiding in Christ and what that looks like for us as LGBT+ Christians.

At the end of the episode, Mary mentions an episode of Theology in the Raw which Kat did with Preston Sprinkle. You can hear that episode at https://www.prestonsprinkle.com/theology-in-the-raw/2019/9/9/756-a-transgender-christians-journey-with-jesus-kat-laprairie

Also, Josh mentioned a podcast episode that impacted him on "slowdown spirituality." It is "Unhurry and Culture with John Mark Comer" on the Food Trucks in Bablyon podcast. You can listen to it at https://podcast.westernseminary.edu/episodes/unhurry-and-culture

This is an exciting one for me (Josh) because we are having a fellow Side B podcaster here on with us today...Laurie Krieg. Grant and I are talking with Laurie about doubt and how to deal with it. Is there anything good God can do through our doubt?

S2E17 | LIVE Panel on Race and Queerness, Part 2 Aug 10, 2020

Show notes

On August 6th, we held the first LIVE episode of the podcast over zoom with some old friends and new ones. We were joined by Meredith and Bridget as well as Darren Calhoun and Sarah Abbey, who are on the podcast for their first time. They came on to answer questions from a live audience and it was a very rich discussion. It was so good that we had to separate the conversation into two episodes.

A Note From Bridget: "In talking about colorism, I was trying to communicate the ways in which race gets erased from the conversation in many Latin American countries and how colorism plays into that equation, favoring lighter skin tones to darker. My wording wasn't the best, however, and runs the risk of communicating that Black and Indigenous people don't exist in Latin America. To clarify, Black and Indigenous people exist up and down Latin America! Their existence and experiences often get erased, however, and colorism often plays into that reality."
