Queer Legacy - Spirit and Calling Irenicast - A Progressive Christian Podcast

    • Christianity

In this episode on queer legacy, Casey shares a recent revelation from a queer history class he has been taking.  He shares the history of the term two-spirit.  A term used by some to describe Indigenous North American people who fulfilled a traditional third-gender ceremonial and social role in their cultures.  As someone who is both queer and has Indigenous ancestry Casey expressed his deep sense of validation in his pastoral calling.
Casey also takes this revelation and challenges us to take a new look at calling and purpose.  This shifts the conversation into challenging the ideas we’ve been given about calling and purpose.  Is calling for the few and capable or for all?  Is it something that happens to us or something we live into?
The episode ends with a fun couple of rounds of Jesus Juke.  Listen to the end to find out just what it means to be a ‘Hot Tub Christian’.
