Jonah & the Peacock The Liberation Project Have the Christian scriptures been weaponized against too many people to be truly redeemed? Join host Jonah Overton, a queer and trans pastor, as they and their guests break down the toxic theology and poisoned stories of the Bible that have been used to cause harm. Together, through storytelling from their own marginalized identities, they will transform the telling of these texts and reclaim them for a more inclusive, justice-oriented, & trauma-informed faith. Beyond The Block Brother Jones and Brother Knox Brother Jones and Brother Knox describe themselves as staunch advocates for the theology and harsh critics of the culture when it comes to Mormonism. A black life-long member and queer convert respectively, they bring a less heard perspective to the notoriously white and heteronormative faith. They feel their desire for justice, love, and salvation for all people, regardless of color, sex, orientation, and other identities is not only consistent with the message of Christ, but *is* the message of Christ. In that spirit, they share their thoughtful, honest, and occasionally raw and humorous take on Mormonism in an effort to shift the culture of Mormonism more into alignment with the theology of Mormonism.Proud member of the Dialogue Podcast Network: DialogueJournal.com/podcastnetworkFollow @btblds House for All Sinners & Saints House for All Sinners and Saints This podcast features the sermon delivered each Sunday to the House For All Sinners And Saints congregation in Denver, Colorado.
