Religion

Welcome to Swerve South! This week the hosts delve into their religious backgrounds and discuss some of the ways their religious upbringing informed their decisions to pursue gender studies. Do you have a pervasive fear of the devil? What are your thoughts on patriarchy and how does this relate to theology? You will ask these questions and dive into some buried thoughts that will help you consider the power of religion in social constructions and pop culture. This week’s conversation is personal, yet relatable. Join Jaime and Theresa as they discuss the impact of Mormonism and Southern Baptist religious traditions on their career paths and discover or consider some ways your background shapes you. Once you listen, you may consider the power of childhood traditions and maybe take a little solace in knowing we all have some religious baggage to work through!
