MOTHER GOD - What if Jesus was Female?

Send us Fan MailThis week on the show we begin with a conversation of a mother of a non-binary child. Beverly St. Amour is Joanna's chosen sister and has been parenting a non-binary child after being raised in fundamental evangelical Christianity. Today on the show we explore what it looks like to retell the Christian narrative of Jesus from a feminine viewpoint. We will discuss  what Faith would look like if we would allow ourselves to see Jesus as female.
