Explicit content warning: this episode contains language not suitable for children. 

Layne and Abigail recall moments they’ve received unwanted sexual comments as they’ve gone about their normal daily routines, acknowledging this is a universal experience for all women. Looking to Hosea 1, they find a woman who is labeled by the text in a sexually explicit manner and ask in what ways harmful language directed at women in the Bible have contributed to perpetuating patriarchal and misogynistic readings of scripture. With a feminist hermeneutic, they subvert the text and explore the feminine aspects of God. Join them and encounter God in the sick and hAlarious!

Scripture reading: Hosea 1:2-11
