Semester one of my graduate degree in (Christian) Spiritual Formation is complete and I‘ve begun semester two! It has been quite a journey. Last semester was a deep-dive into personal identity, enlightenment, and the problems of the White supremacist evangelical patriarchy & the western Christian world‘s systematic destruction of the earth and human community. Now onto the mystics and feminist/womanist/liberation readings of the Old Testament! 😅

LeahBergen Wow! Go you! 👏👏 3y
Christine How great!! Been thinking of taking my scholarship more in this direction lately too, though for now I‘m settling for it being part of my “pleasure” reading. If you find time to post about any of your school texts here, I‘ll be an eager audience member! 3y
Megabooks Congratulations! 🥳 This curriculum would fit in well at my church! (edited) 3y
CarolynM So interesting! 3y
GingerAntics I genuinely didn‘t know there was a Christian denomination or group actually acknowledging these things, especially with the current climate of head-in-the-sand social and political behaviours. 3y
