We are grateful for the opportunity to live and work on this land and are mindful of the need to repair broken covenants.On this episode Amy Panton and Miriam Spies are joined by Robbie Walker and Laura MacGregor to tell reflect on words that have shaped and continue to shape our crip and mad theologies. Together we explore our hope, passion, and "crunchy" theology where we sit with ambiguity and discomfort. We also briefly dip into theologies of healing. We would love to hear what this conversation sparks in you, what resonates with your experience, and what questions are lingering for you.This podcast is an opportunity to model how faith communities can engage in theological and spiritual conversations around madness and cripness.To see a video of this podcast along with subtitles visit https://youtu.be/xNzRo-VM-YM Follow us on Facebook and/or InstagramRead the Journal
