    Disability, Faith and Feminity with Kirsi Cobb

    In this episode, our guest speaker, Kirsi Cobb , and our very own Sarah M-H,
    talk to Vicky about being a disabled Christian woman.
     
    Kirsi Cobb is a lecturer in biblical studies at Cliff College and a co-investigator in the AHRC funded project Abusing God: Reading Bible in the #MeToo Age. The Abusing God Network provides a platform to connect academics, church, and charity practitioners, in order to develop new research into the intersection between Scripture and the lived experience of Christian survivors. Kirsi’s current research focuses on women in the Hebrew Bible with a special interest in biblical interpretation including feminist, deconstructive and trauma studies. Her recent projects include a reading of Lot’s daughters in Genesis 19 in light of trauma theory and revenge, as well as a study on gender and violence in Hosea 2.

    RGP History


    Alison & Grace were having a conversation in the summer of 2019 about podcasts and they weren't aware of any at the time that spoke to their context, so they decided to set one up. You can hear more about their thinking about the podcast in the Introductions episode. 


    Grace & Alison worked on the podcast together for the first year but Grace had other commitments that meant she had to give the podcast up, so from February  - August 2021 Alison carried on without her. 


    In August 2021, Alex & Amy joined Alison and they became the three AAAs.


    Alex moved to a new, exciting job and now there is a new team. Listen to the episode  'Then There Were 6 - New Team, Same Great Episode' for more information about the team.
