123: Pushed Aside: Women and LGBTQ in Christianity pt. 2

In episode 123 of The Knitting Pilgrim Talks, Kirk speaks with Rev. Daniel Brereton of St. John's Dixie Anglican Church about the section of the "Stitched Glass" Christian tapestry depicting a female figure reaching up to the figure of Christ, yet being pushed aside. In the background are pink triangles, representing the LGBTQ+ community and their similar experience of being ostracized by the church. Rev. Brereton talks about the link between women's rights, gay rights, and their essential threat to the patriarchy of a capitalist society that would rather focus on the biblically insignificant issue of gender rather than the bible's fundamental message prohibiting idolatry, greed, and the misuse of money.
