Today, we have a fun episode. Uncertain and the hosts for the Holy Heretics podcast and the Space Between UK podcast had a lot of fun recording it and hope you have fun listening. So here’s our episode discussing how things like smoking, and cussing, and tattoos became things the evangelical community sometimes uses to assess someone’s spiritual maturity.
In true Uncertain podcast fashion, we didn’t record this in an effort to find all the answers. Sometimes, you just have to ask the question and start the conversation.

You may have heard about the podcast “The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill”. It’s a podcast mini series gaining popularity and it chronicles the story of Mark Driscoll and Mars Hill church. It’s a story of systemic spiritual abuse, and I definitely recommend it.
However, the bonus episode that came out last week added problematic elements to the conversation, including a misunderstand of the devastation caused by spiritual abuse. Uncertain and a couple other podcasters, Melanie Mudge from the Holy Heretics and Tim Whitaker of The New Evangelicals, decided to record our own bonus episode in response.
Here is the much requested audio from the Instagram Live (7/16/2021) with Brian Peck where we discuss the difference between Religious Trauma and Spiritual Abuse.

Here is a lovely conversation with Heather Lawrence. Mystic, priesthood pursuing, podcast host of the Chickmonks podcast, where she explores theology through a uniquely female lens.
There’s some deep stuff in the episode, but also lots of fun. Conversation discusses Spiritual Abuse, art, feminism, sex, and the divine feminine. And because Heather and Katherine both pursued careers in church ministry, they both want the church to do better, which is what Uncertain is all about.

Today’s guest is Beth Allison Barr, author of The Making of Biblical Womanhood: How the Subjugation of Women Became Gospel Truth.
Beth Allison Barr received her B.A. from Baylor University and her M.A. and Ph.D. in Medieval History from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill. Her research focuses on women and religion in medieval and early modern England, especially in how they are viewed and portrayed in sermon literature.
The conversation about the subjugation of women in the church is an important one for the conversation of abuse.

Makoto Fujimura is a leading contemporary artist whose process driven, refractive “slow art” has been described by David Brooks of New York Times as “a small rebellion against the quickening of time”. Robert Kushner, in the mid 90’s, wrote on Fujimura’s art in Art in America this way: “The idea of forging a new kind of art, about hope, healing, redemption, refuge, while maintaining visual sophistication and intellectual integrity is a growing movement, one which finds Makoto Fujimura’s work at the vanguard.”
