    Netflix’s Mary & A Progressive Christian Christmas

    In this episode, we discuss what we each have learned about Christmas as a progressive Christian that opened up the Christmas story in new and meaningful ways. We end with a discussion about the Netflix film, Mary, and how paying closer attention to the social and political circumstances that Jesus’ mother faced should move Christians towards a feminist (i.e., anti-sexist) analysis of the story of the birth of Christ.

    Can Murder Be Just? Luigi Mangione & Healthcare In America

    In this episode, we discuss the murder of United Healthcare CEO Brian Thompson and the public reaction to it. While we believe that violence is not the solution to the healthcare crisis in America, we discuss how certain forms of violence, i.e., the violence of denying people the health coverage they have paid for, are the root cause of so much suffering in our country. We conclude by discussing what a progressive Christian vision of healthcare looks like for each of us.

    A Qualified Black Woman Lost To An Under-Qualified White Male Criminal

    We really want to hear from our listeners - what do you need from us right now? What type of content would be most helpful for you? Please leave a comment on this episode or in a podcast review. We love you all and our aim is to become a place of refuge, hope, and resistance. In this episode, recorded on Wednesday November 6th, we begin to digest the results of the 2024 presidential election. It is a lot to process and as you will notice in the episode, we are still trying to figure out what happened. We apologize for Rev. Dr. Carter’s audio. His mic disconnected at the beginning of the recording and we failed to reconnect it. We were a bit tired and overwhelmed during the recording.

    Christian Nationalism is More Pervasive Than You Realize

    Congregations aligned with Christian Nationalism are funding state and local political candidates, helping people run for school boards, and training local police departments.

    Evangelicals Fear Sexual Assault, But Misplace Their Focus

    During the Million Women March in October 2024, conservative women expressed their concerns that secular society is pressuring their children to change genders and that the bodies of their children are not safe. In this episode we discuss the march, the Christian Nationalist theology that undergurds it, and the truth that conservative clergy, and not the queer community, are the perpetrators of most sexual assault crimes against women and children.
