Podcasts about bishop oliveto

On this month’s Impolite Conversation, we talk to a scholar and a bishop about the continuing crisis regarding the status of LGBTQ people in the United Methodist Church. First, Iliff School of Theology president Thomas Wolfe shares his thoughts with us. Then Karen Oliveto, the first LGBT bishop in UMC history, spares some moments to consider what the situation means for her and her flock. And in One Last Thing, Dan has been watching TV (again) and Tim has been reading News of the Gross (again). Some of the things we talked about in this episode: Here is the statement Dr. Wolfe released to the Iliff community. And here is Bishop Oliveto’s memoir. Dan’s OLT was about the Amazon show Hanna. And Tim’s OLT was about this poor woman. 0:00-1:57: Introductions 2:01-27:41: Wolfe interview 27:46-41:17: Oliveto interview 41:21-43:45: Dan’s OLT 43:46-46:10: Tim’s OLT 46:11-47:13: Credits 47:17-47:22: Outtake

Even though we are technically on a break between seasons, we wanted to take a moment and recognize that a significant event happened within the United Methodist Church in terms of the denomination's relationship with LGBTQ+ persons in general and Bishop Karen Oliveto in particular.

On the morning of September 5, 2016, Josh and Alex were able to sit down for a phone conversation with Bishop Karen Oliveto of the Mountain Sky Regoin. Bishop Oliveto graciously shared her story of finding her calling, not in spite of who she is, but because of it. She also shares her vision and her hope for the United Methodist Church as we move forward. We were incredibly blessed to be able to chat with and to be able to share her story and insights with all of you, our listeners.
