Saved by the City

The Midterms and the Myth of the Unmarried Woman + Karen Gonzalez on Immigration


Listen Later

Unmarried women are ruining everything! 

At least according to some people who went to Twitter, Fox News, and God only knows where else to bemoan last week's midterm election results — placing a large share of their disappointment at the feet of unmarried women, who broke strongly for Democrats. Suffice it to say, their words were not very nice. Anyway, politics aside, we think their vitriol was misguided — and we have the data to prove it!

On this week's episode, Katelyn and Roxy dive into some research on the state of unmarried women and the church. We discuss the importance of "thick community" and the false promises of independence.

Plus, we talk with Karen González, on how to move beyond "welcoming immigrants" to relationships of mutuality and kinship.

GUEST:


  • Karen González
  • is an immigrant advocate, writer — and unmarried woman, by the way, who is kicking butt and taking names — and author of the new book "Beyond Welcome: Centering Immigrants in Our Christian Response to Immigration."
