We celebrate the life and mourn the death of longtime activist and friend of Downtown Disciples Donna Red Wing. In her honor, we offer this rebroadcast of a conversation between Donna, her wife Sumitra, and friend Mary Dyer following our screening of Proposition 9 hosted by Downtown Disciples last year.

This is the second half of Pastor Debbie's conversation with Rich and Sheri Faye Rosendahl. Sheri discusses her upcoming book Not Your White Jesus, an evaluation of white American Christianity's confrontation of social issues in comparison against the words of Jesus. They also discuss Matthew 25 and the implications that has for people of privilege as they try to follow Christ and be in community.

A few years ago, Rich & Sheri Faye Rosendahl found their passion for the Middle East, found each other, and founded a relationship-building non-profit called The Nations. This is the first part of Pastor Debbie's conversation with them, where they talk about their work of building relationships, following Christ, learning hospitality, traveling to Palestine and Lebanon, and breaking apart myths about the Middle East.

As today's guest Nancy Thompson can attest, life changes, faith changes, and perception changes. But does God change? Nancy, Pastor Debbie, and the prophet Jonah proffer their insight and questions into that very conundrum.

ELCA pastor Emily Ewing shares their story of living into the call of queerness, ordained ministry, and immigrant rights activism. Emily and Pastor Debbie also discuss the Daughters of Zelophehad in Numbers 27, and the implications their story has for modern seekers of justice. And Harry Potter!
