Cafeteria Christian
To kick off our Pride month discussions we’re bringing back an oldie but a goodie: episode 23, Emmy’s first appearance on the podcast way back in January 2019. Natalia, Nora McInerny, and Emmy talk “welcoming” vs “affirming,” reclaiming the word “queer,” and what to do with “Bam Bam Christians” who are just a little too into the “clobber verses” of the Bible.
