This week on the podcast we talk about power dynamics in sports and how our public education is being dramatically influenced by recent anti-queer and racist laws. All that and more on this podcast dedicated to our Intersex Siblings!
Question of the Week:
Why is peace so important in the Christian context?
Special Guests:
Stephanie Budwey, Professor of the History and Practice of Christian Worship and the Arts, Vanderbilt Divinity School & Marissa Adams, Intersex Advocate with interest in the intersection of intersex and faith/religion
Guest Question:
We talk about supporting the “LBTQIA+ community”, but often forget or overlook the “I” which stands for intersex persons. How can we better support our Intersex siblings in our faith communities, especially when some communities still struggle to understand and support the LGBTQ part of the acronym? We can barely talk about sex in our faith communities, let alone issues faced by the intersex community.
