Why Did Jesus Cleanse the Temple? – Matthew 21 & 22 with Naphtali Renshaw


Listen Later

Episode Highlights

  • The queer theology anthem that happened to be Jesus' favorite song lyric
  • Jesus' street pageantry entering Jerusalem parodying the imperial occupation;
  • Merch tables in the part of the temple dedicated to hosting outsiders;
  • Jesus' mounting sense of his looming lynching;
  • Jesus' GTFO clapbacks;
  • and much more


Our guest co-host is Naphtali Renshaw (she/they). Naphtali is the director of the BeLonging Space, a United Methodist ministry which resources faith communities to support LGBTQ+ and BIPOC-led liberation groups as acts of solidarity and reparations, including as de-escalators at Pride events. They are also the on-site support for the Maxwell Community Hub, a UMC building reimagined for neighborliness and queer liberation.
