An Exploration of Queer and Womanist/Feminist Theologies
Meeting God in Our Bodies
Sundays, May 9 & 16 at 9:30 am., via Zoom
Join Jaz Buchanan, Taj Smith, Lexi Boudreaux, and Karlene Griffiths Sekou for a two-part Adult Formation series on how our theology meets us in our bodies. We will be exploring how our theology affects our perception and understanding of our bodies and what that has to do with our collective liberation. At our first session on May 9, Jaz, Lexi, and Taj will lead a discussion based in feminist and queer theologies. At our second session on May 16, Lexi and Karlene will approach the topic through the lens of womanist theology.
