Episode 22: Sacred Seminary Symposium: Un poquito de justicia
We're back, six months later (!) with episode 7 of Sacred Seminary Symposium. Lauren R.E. Larkin and Sabrina discuss Mujerista Theology chapter 6, Un poquito de justicia, A Little Bit of Justice. We go over the five faces of oppression, and eight answers from mujerista justice, according to Isasi-Diaz. Along the way, we discuss the value of contextualizing oppression, belonging v diversity, if progress is a real thing leading to utopia, and more. Find the quotes discussed here:

Brave Church with Elizabeth Hagan
Elizabeth Hagan is a graduate of Duke Divinity School and has been a pastor for 15 years. She saw - and personally experienced - the isolation, loneliness, and shame that remains unspoken when Christians shy away from difficult conversations. She knew that the church could do better to foster a sense of acceptance and belonging. So she wrote Brave Church to open the door to the presence of God in difficult conversations.
Listen in as I chat with Elizabeth about her new book, Brave Church and her vision about a place where people don't have to check out their issues at the church door, because the community can talk through tough topics in a context of respect, vulnerability, and kindness, learning and exercising love for neighbor.

Thinking about Atonement Theology with Hannah Bowman
Currently in our USA context, our so-called justice system is heavily punitive, and uses people, particularly black and brown folks, as its scapegoats. Might penal substitutionary atonement theology have something to do with this? In our conversation, Hannah explains how we can rethink substitutionary atonement theology in a non-punitive sense, and use Jesus' solidarity with victims and perpetrators of harm in the crucifixion to anchor abolition theology and thus the transformative and restorative justice from which it flows. Let's also think about how the resurrection plays into this.
