It’s Jesus Fanfiction...and we’re loving it.
Manage episode 351568169 series 3318170
Are we attracted to Jesus? This fictional telling of Jesus’ wife, Ana, has us in love. We love the feminist take in a Biblical setting. We love the love between Jesus and Ana. And we love the female relationships explored in this novel. It’s a book surrounding faith, written for everyone, and relatable to those trying to find their purpose in life.
This week, we read The Book of Longings by Sue Monk Kidd
Sierra Marshall, lover of romance and getting lost in imagined worlds, joins me today to talk about this book that pulled on all the right heart strings.
In this episode we cover:
- Jenna’s list of quotes from this book that spans the length of her desk.
- Why secular and faith-based audiences agree that this is just a really good book with great storytelling.
- Why Sierra might be crushing on Jesus…hard.
Open your book and press play on a podcast episode that will leave you longing for more in this life…like more books and more cocktails.
Mentioned in the Pairings section of the podcast:
- The Spanish Princess (TV Show)
- Jesus Christ Superstar (Movie)
- Spencer (Movie)
- Women, earth, and Creator Spirit Book (Book)
- The Color Purple (Book)
Drink Pairings: literally any red wine (or water, because water into wine and all of that).
