I have new nerd crush and it is Dr. Susan M. Shaw. This episode was one of the most fun conversations I have had in a while. It may be because we are both members of an endangered theological species... cradle southern baptists who went process, but none the less it was so fun it went for three hours and I had to edit it down!

Susan M. Shaw is professor of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies at Oregon State University. She is author of God Speaks to Us, Too: Southern Baptist Women on Church, Home, and Society and Intersectional Theology: An Introductory Guide.

the predicament of becoming human

divine presence and sexual abuse
how process helps one reengage with a tradition
thinking simultaneity and both/and with intersectional thought
"God loves me and I can live like it"
it's not if we come together, but how
