Post X-odus intro: I’m a writer, calligrapher, teacher, director, & mystic queering divinity here as I write my book, Trash Abbey: a journey to transform what we call holy in everything religion has taught us to reject & fear.
If God is rain on your hair, is there still no God? I promise I’m not trying to convert you!

I left church because I love God. Why is it important to have conversations about the Christian God?

Through my work in trauma theology, Holy Saturday has become an important day to me, both as a motif for existing in between life and death, & as a day in which to dwell not rushing to the resurrection. Not all things are resolved in victory. Trauma can be explored in this liturgical space

In episode 2 of @snobspod.bsky.social, we critique a #documentary disgusted by #disabledsex, #TellThemYouLoveMe. We talk about the fetishization of disabled & black bodies, & what disabled care would look like if our parents were paid to take care of us

Listen everywhere you get your #podcasts.

I want so desperately to tell you about the #queer #disabled #menstruating #ugly #brown God that I call Christ. I want so desperately for you to feel safe in your skin. I want to relieve the pressure to name your longing.

What book on #disability, #disabilitytheology, #queertheology, or #queertheory is on your holiday wish list? Especially if you already have a library copy that you are resisting marking on.

If cultivating attention is prayer, on these apps demanding no more than your short attention spans, how do we utter holy things?
