About this listen

 Are we theologians? No. But are we experts on life and culture? Also no. What we are is a podcast featuring two progressive, southern, (almost) 30 year olds who just want to rant about faith, church culture, modern issues, and our D&D characters (sometimes). Do you need something to listen to while you clean your house or drive to work? Do you like hearing people rant and then ranting about those things to yourself later in the shower? Us too. Join us.Sara Kaufmann & Jordyn Manczyk Spirituality

    40. God's Big They/Them Energy
    Sep 23 2022

    Oh hey there! Been a bit, but we're back! And if you thought we skipped episode 39, don't worry! We didn't. It's around here...somewhere...

    On today's episode, we're talking about the "gender" of God, or if God has a gender at all. We also have a little fun playing Deconstruction Bingo, appreciating fall, and wondering what kind of enchilada God would be. Also we cry a little. Hope you enjoy!

    38. Cult Communion: Warren Jeffs and the FLDS
    Jul 22 2022

    Anyone else obsessed with cult documentaries? Just us? Well, we recently watched Keep Sweet: Pray and Obey on Netflix and it's inspired us to dig deep into the FLDS and its (awful? creepy? evil genius?) leader, Warren Jeffs. We also talk about songs that sound like worship songs but aren't, and Jordyn's scary trip to Grande Escalante National Park.

    37. Two American Girls Lament
    Jul 9 2022

    Topic: The first half of 2022, Roe v. Wade, and things we're annoyed about. 

    TW: Sexual abuse

    In this episode, Jordyn and Sara discuss recent events in the United States Supreme Court, as well as the recent scandals in the Southern Baptist Convention. There's a lot of lamenting, and this episode is a bit more free-form as we try to grapple with the current weight of the world, where God may be, and macaroni and cheese.
