...From Purity Culture: Reclaiming the Bible From Purity Culture w/ Marty Solomon Artwork

Reclaiming My Theology

Reclaiming My Theology is a podcast and community taking our theology back from ideas and systems that oppress. My name is Brandi Miller, some of you know me as @brandinico in online spaces. For over a decade, I have been exploring, unlearing, and reimagining my faith outside of systemic oppression and want to bring you along with me! Each season of the podcast will be a deep dive into a form of systemic oppression and ask how the values of oppressive ideas shape our hearts, minds, politics, and lived experiences. There are so many things to reclaim our theology from: white supremacy, patriarchy and misogyny, capitalism, homophobia, ableism and more. As we launch our first season, we will be reclaiming our theology from white supremacy. Each episode, I will talk to a guest about how the attributes of oppressive ideologies have infiltrated how we see ourselves, each other, and God. We will learn from marginalized communities who practice a different way, and seek to create a more just faith experience together.

...From Purity Culture: Reclaiming the Bible From Purity Culture w/ Marty Solomon

February 18, 2023 • Season 6 • Episode 12

In this episode, Brandi is joined by Marty Solomon of the BEMA podcast, to talk about the questions that we are often led to ask about the bible, sex, dating, purity culture, and relationship to one another. They explore both interpretation strategies and specific texts to offer pathways for engaging the text that go beyond the flat readings that we have been given.

You can find Marty's work and his recently released book "Asking Better Questions of the Bible" here.
