Season 3 Episode 2: The Cold Shoulder
Manage episode 335560375 series 2922569
Rev. Starlette Thomas is a womanist in ministry and the host of “The Raceless Gospel” podcast from Good Faith Media. In this ongoing conversation, Thomas and her guests talk about that taboo trinity — race, religion and politics – in the structure of a church service.
Season three of the podcast focuses on the church in North America’s “body language.” In episode two with Alyssa Aldape, Thomas points out that members of marginalized groups are often given the cold shoulder. God’s arms are outstretched, but the North American church is most known for who it steers clear of. The American church’s history of exclusion and the implications are not up for debate but open to discussion.
Alyssa Aldape is a freelance writer and columnist for Good Faith Media.
