Cheers to Leaving!

In this compelling episode, we sit down with Shannon TL Kearns, a former fundamentalist who became the first openly transgender man ordained to the Old Catholic priesthood. We discuss trans issues, trans theology and Christianity. We also discuss how people can be in better solidarity with trans folks today and what listening to trans folks might open up for people who aren't trans.
Shannon believes in the transformative power of story. As an ordained priest, a playwright, a theologian, and a writer all of his work revolves around making meaning through story. He is the co-founder of QueerTheology.com. His first book In the Margins: A Transgender Man’s Journey With Scripture just released from Eerdmaan’s books. He started and led Uprising Theatre Company for 6 years.
