Episode 17. “Queering Jesus” Or: “God Hates Figs”


Listen Later

This week Jess & Jack have a conversation about queering the person of Jesus. We consider the possibility that he was literally queer—non-binary or pansexual or under the ace umbrella.

We talk about how queer people being invisible minorities means that it makes it difficult to prove the queerness of many historical figures but also nearly impossible to prove someone wasn’t one of us.

We talk about what it means to “queer” a text, and we look at queer resonances in Jesus’ life, including his experiences of being rejected by his family and faith community.
