Voice of the Turtle

Brian Henderson

"Voice of the Turtle" is a podcast from the Association of Welcoming & Affirming Baptists (AWAB), produced in partnership with Good Faith Media. The year 2026 brings some uncertainty for our LGBTQ+ family ... but we’ve been here before. Across eight episodes, we’re going to burrow our way through some of our history and talk to the people who made it ... and are still making it. "Voice of the Turtle" was the name of an LGBTQ+ newsletter produced by Baptists in the late '70s and into the early '80s. Voice of the Turtle's motto was: "Behold the Turtle: It Makes Progress Only When it Sticks Out Its Neck." The podcast will honor the lives of those who courageously stuck out their neck, whether as an ally to or member of the LGBTQ+ community.
