Elle talks about the supposed oxymoron between transgender identities and spirituality or religion. She discusses her faith background (which was dominated by Seventh-Day Adventist Christianity), the ways in which queer people make sense of their faith, how her vocation as a Christian pastor interacted with her gender, and the ways in which she practices spirituality today. While this episode is Christian-centric because of Elle's background, it is not limited to that expression of religion. She references other traditions such as Islam, Hinduism, and Buddhism. Some of the resources referenced in the episode include: "Anatomy of A Queer Faith" Pride Service at Paradox Church Redlands (click here for a video recording of the service that includes spoken word portions by Elle) LA Times Article by Marissa Gerber - Renewing Faith, or Losing It, In the Time of COVID Rachel Mann, Dazzling Darkness Transmission Ministry Collective, support groups and resources for Christian Trans People (created by Austen Hartke, the author of the book "Transforming" Joy Ladin, Through the Door of Life Transgender and Jewish Faith Shannon T.

For many people, a key part of the holidays this time of year includes attending services in a faith community. But for many transgender people, it's difficult to find a spiritual home that's welcoming, affirming and inclusive. Austen Hartke, executive director of Transmission Ministry Collective. he talks with host Cathy Wurzer about his online ministry dedicated to the spiritual care of transgender people around the world.

Reverend Sarah Kientz dialogues contemporary gender, faith and trans identity issues with noted theologian Austen Harke. Austen Hartke is the author of Transforming: The Bible and the Lives of Transgender Christians, a book on theology and personal narratives published by Westminster John Knox Press in 2018. He is also the founder and director of Transmission Ministry Collective, an online community dedicated to the spiritual care, faith formation, and leadership potential of transgender and gender-expansive Christians. Austen is a graduate of Luther Seminary's Master of Arts program in Old Testament/Hebrew Bible Studies, and is the winner of the 2014 John Milton Prize in Old Testament Writing from the same institution.

Austen Hartke is a transgender Christian man who wrote the book Transforming: the Bible and the Lives of Transgender Christians. The book is a gift to the trans Christian community, as well as to parents, church leaders, and the church in general. While the church and politicians debate and degrade transgender people's existence, they are trying to live lives without loneliness, isolation, and self-hatred. Austen's book does an incredible job of sharing the stories of real life trans and non-binary people who grew up in the church. He frames the conversation Biblically and theologically and shares his own story. We're excited to share Austen's voice and perspective, and to do something that far too few people are doing today--actually listening to the perspective and story of trans people who are trying to love themselves and love Jesus.The resources Austen mentions in the interview are:Transmission Ministry CollectiveTransfaith: A Transgender Pastoral Resource - Christina Beardsley & Chris DowdThe beverage we sample in the episode is Chicken Cock Kentucky Straight Rye from our friends at Story Hill BKC.The beverage tasting is at 2:20.

Debbie B Celebrating Queerness “God created us all and declared that we were good and that includes all of who you are, your gender identity, your sexuality, all of that. No one can take away God's love for you, no matter how they try.” In this episode of Called to be Bad, I talk with Debbie B about what it would look like to move from tolerance/acceptance/inclusion to celebration. Debbie B is a seminary student working on her Master of Divinity. She is called to be a pastor and desires to serve marginalized people. After seminary she hopes to be a pastor in a church that cares for the marginalized in radical ways and celebrates the gifts that queer people bring to the church.  Resources Mentioned: Supportive Communities Network: https://www.bmclgbt.org/scnGaychurch.com: https://www.gaychurch.org/ChurchClarity.com: https://www.churchclarity.org/The Brethren Mennonite Council for LGBT interests: https://www.bmclgbt.org/Queer Theology: https://www.queertheology.com/Austen Hartke (trans Christian author) Trans Faith Resource List: http://austenhartke.com/trans-faith-resourcesTransmission Ministry Collective: https://www.transmissionministry.com/More Light Presbyterians: https://mlp.org/American Psychological Association-- Society for the Psychology of Sexual Orientation and Gender Diversity: https://www.apa.org/about/division/div44Enfleshed.com: https://enfleshed.com/ Follow us for more ✨bad✨ content: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/calledtobebad_podcast/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/calledtobebad Website: https://calledtobebad.buzzsprout.com/ Sponsor of this episode: https://www.arthumorsoul.com/Want to become part of the ✨baddie✨ community?

You know what can suck? Reading your Bible and feeling like you are neither included nor counted. You know what can be incredibly healing? Having someone show you how, in fact, you are right there on the page, part of the story.

"I don't understand," they say, and now you've got some work to do.  Listener Kai asks how to explain what nonbinary means to their boyfriend's religious parents. Luckily, Faith knows how to talk to religious people so you know The Gender Rebels have some thoughts.   Checkout our episodes with our nonbinary friend Avery: Everything In Between and Nonbinary Talk With Avery. A nonbinary person is not necessarily intersex, but Avery said it can be a helpful metaphor to people who prefer to start from a scientific example. Check out our intersex episode for details. Faith is a fan of Sci Show and they also have an episode on intersex people.   Becoming Eve: My Journey from Ultra-Orthodox Rabbi to Transgender Woman by Abby Stein is just one of many stories from religious or formerly religious people dealing with queerness, transition, or being nonbinary or intersex.  Also it's just a great read.  We love Austen Hartke and he has done so much fascinating work on queer interpretations of the bible.

Do you have a sweater chest? A dressmaker's mannequin for your shawls, or a special hanger? A box of socks? I tend to roll my handknit socks and put them in a drawer. I only have drawer space for my shawls but worry that by folding them I’ll have fold marks when it’s time to wear them.

In this reissued episode, Pete and Jared sit down with Austen Hartke to discuss what the Bible has to say about transgender people. They get into unexamined Bible passages, mysterious Hebrew words, and how to make your church a welcoming space for people with gender identities outside of the binary.

In this life-giving episode we are thrilled to welcome Austen Hartke, Michiko Bown-Kai, and Rev. Dr. Christina Beardsley as they each present a talk about evolving faith through the lens of their trans and/or non-binary identities. Then our guests join Sarah and Jeff in a wise and beautiful conversation on wilderness, hope, paradox, and how the fullness of identity can be a form of resistance and prophetic witness.

"We are called into action in anticipation of this kingdom to come. So what are we called to do in Jesus' name? What are we called to do to protect our transgender siblings? Will you stop to ask the trans woman being harassed by the police if she needs any help? Will you make sure the trans youth experiencing homelessness in your community will have somewhere to eat a meal once this week? Will you accompany a trans person to immigration court to provide support and care? There is so much that we can do. Sometimes it can feel a little bit overwhelming. But as our Jewish siblings say, 'Do not be daunted by the enormity of the world's suffering. You are not obliged to complete the work, but neither are you free to desist from it.'" Sermon by Austen Hartke at All Saints Church, Pasadena, on Sunday, November 17, 2019. Readings: Isaiah 65:17-25 and Luke 21:5-19.

It’s part 8 of our series, “Setting the Bible Free” and today we’re sitting down with Austen Hartke to talk about his book “Transforming”.  Austen is a transgender Christian theologian who brings unique perspective to reading the Bible.  We also talk about how churches can be more welcoming to transgender people and Austen shares a special word of encouragement to our transgender listeners.

This episode is a conversation about the book Modern Kinship: A Queer Guide to Christian Marriage by David and Constantino Khalaf who invite the LGBTQ community to see marriage in a new enchanting light—that of an unorthodox, unbiblical, LGBTQ-affirming “Christianity”. The book makes the case that queer “Christian” marriage is a healthy option for partnered gays and lesbians, and that, in many cases, it is a more functional version of its counterpart—heterosexual marriage. Its forward is written by the late Rachel Held Evans.The second part of the episode is a discussion of Evans's legacy in second annual Evolving Faith Conference which was held Oct. 2019 in Denver. It has been only a few short months since the untimely and tragic and death in May 2019 of writer Rachel Held Evans, founder and co-creator of the Evolving Faith Conference. Almost 3,000 spiritual seekers gathered in Denver for the annual conference. In Evans's stead, Sarah Bessey and Jeff Chu guided the assembly through the continued deconstruction of this historic, orthodox Christian faith and into the initial stages of its radical reconstruction.

If you didn’t get out to your local LGBTQ Pride festivities -- no worries -- this episode is a Pride month celebration.  Our own Pastor Casey Tinnin was elected the Grand Marshal of the Sacramento, California Pride Parade. What do you wear when you’re the Grand Marshal of a Pride parade?  In the first half of this celebration, Casey recounts his experience, internally and externally, of representing and serving his community in Sacramento Pride. In part two of this episode, Casey sits down with author and pastor, Rev. Lawrence T. Richardson. Rev. Lawrence T. Richardson is an African-American trans man who wears many hats.  He is Pastor at Linden Hills United Church of Christ, media trainer with Auburn Seminary, leadership coach with The Center for Progressive Renewal, and a writer for The Salt Collective.​​​  He recently wrote the book, I Know What Heaven Looks Like:  A Modern Day Coming of Age Story. In addition to his new book, Rev. Richardson writes about and advocates for LGBTQ people, people of color and the flourishing of all. His works have appeared in Huffington Post Religion, The Root, Believe Out Loud, The Salt Collective, Rachel Murr’s Unnatural: Spiritual Resiliency in Queer Christian Women, Austen Hartke’s Transforming: The Bible and the Lives of Transgender Christians, and numerous other national and international publications. He has also received awards and commendations for his service from Black Transmen, Inc. and the Stellar Awards for his work in global communication. You will not want to miss this conversation between two men who, through struggle, have found their callings into ministry. The conversation, like Pastor Casey and Rev. Lawrence, is authentic, real, vulnerable and full of testimony to the power of finding Love in God and in people who know how to Love freely and abundantly.   Pride Month Celebration Part One w/ Pastor Casey (01:23) Pride Month Celebration Part Two w/ Rev. Lawrence T. Richardson (18:03) PASTOR CASEY’S SPEECH FROM SACRAMENTO PRIDE My name is Pastor Casey Tinnin, I am the Pastor of Loomis United Church of Christ.  I am the founder of The Landing Spot a non religious support group for LGBTQIA+ teens and their adult caregivers, the Co-Founder of Intersections a recovery group for ex fundamentalists and ex evangelicals, and a co-host on the podcast Irenicast.  I want to say thank you to the four thousand people who voted for me. It is my deepest honor to be one of your grand marshals. It recently has been said that the only way forward is for “everyone to be accepted.” This is true, however true love and acceptance comes with a deep since of humility and truth telling. Acceptance is not created by back door deals and forced participation. Love and acceptance comes when we are willing to tell the truth of our own lives and to take account of our own actions and how our actions are perceived. Today, I am aware that as a gay cist gendered Pastor and for many in the LGBTQ+ community seeing a pastor stand before them is triggering. And so this morning I want to say I am sorry on behalf of God and Christianity for the violence that has been inflected upon you.  For the ways spoken and unspoken that the message of Christianity has been coopted and used to harm each of us. Sexism, racism, homophobia, transphobia, body shaming…. I am sorry… I am also aware of how cis gendered gay men and lesbians have fallen short in their support for the transgendered community.  We stand on the shoulders of giants, and it is on the shoulders of those trans women who lead the fight at stone wall that we have any rights at all. But fifty years later it is still trans people, and trans people of color who are still the victims of abuse, hate, murder, infection, suicide, and homelessness. And apart of your suffering is because as cis gendered gay and lesbian people we have been complicit, and for that I am sorry. Beloved family, the only way forward is together.  There is a new wind blowing through this place, and my prayer is that it stirs among us and through our capital, and throughout the nation.  We are in trying times, but we can not combat hate with hate, it is only love that can see us forward. Every week I see the boldness and courage of young LGBT teens in the work that I do that are looking for love and acceptance, and it is our job together to make the world a more safe and loving world for them. And in creating that world it will require us to take bold action, like we have seen the Pride Center Staff do.  So thank you Pride Center staff… not just for standing up and living boldly this week but every day that you show up for the most vulnerable among us. You have stood with us, and we will stand with you. A powerful wind of change is blowing among us, may we be committed to rolling with it together and continuing to build the arc of justice together. Because the only way we truly rise, is together.

Does transition mean going against God's plan? In this episode we answer a listener question from a transwoman. She asks "I am finally taking steps necessary to create the happiness and peace I need in my life through transition. I have come out to some people who are very close to me but have not come out to my parents. I have this itching feeling that my mom knows. She confronted my fiancé about me and one of her comments was 'I'm okay with being gay but transgender is something different. God doesn't make mistakes when it comes to gender.' What is your take on religion and gender?" So does God mistakes with gender?  Be sure and check out Austen Hartke's website and his book "Transforming: The Bible and the Lives of Transgender Christians."

We have all seen enough of masculinity gone awry. From the top floors of corporations and institutions to the basement youth group meetings of our churches, men are formed by unspoken scripts known to many as toxic masculinities. In this episode, Matthew talks with Austen Hartke and Silas Morgan about ways to unearth hidden masculinities and practice a more healthy and embodied life.  With humor and vulnerability, their conversation touches on everything from the #metoo and #churchtoo movements to evangelical dating culture and more. We hope you enjoy it. Visit us at www.alterguild.org Follow us on instagram @alterguildpodcast
