Ep91. Hope in Disarray, Grace Ji-Sun Kim

I sat down with Grace Ji-Sun Kim to talk about hope. We talk about writing for the public, differentiating hope from optimism, speaking of hope amidst the pain and violence of sexism, racism, and ecological destruction, and what it means to live inside and even become our hope. We also talk about her new podcast Madang and what it's like to be on the other side of the mic. Buy the Book Listen to Madang Grace Ji-Sun Kim is Professor of Theology at Earlham School of Religion.
