Join Rev. Emily E. Ewing (they) and Rev. Kay Rohloff (she) to explore new and nerdy connections to the scripture for Pentecost, which falls on June 5th this year, including our deep dive into Middle East geography!


The scripture we refer to for this episode can be found here.  Check out this map of Middle East geography. If you’re up for the Acts reading or preaching, definitely check out Kay’s guide to the countries and pronunciation.  Geography wisdom from StoryPeople. Books we mentioned in this episode are Faith in the Face of Empire by Mitri Raheb and Color Me In by Natasha Díaz.  We mentioned our Easter 3 deep dive into Paul, our Easter 2 deep dive into Revelation, last year’s Pentecost deep dive into Translation with Dr. Jake Rapp, and our Easter 7 deep dive into human trafficking.  For geography fun check out Free Rice (to help feed people as well) or Worldle.  For help learning a new language, check out Babbel, Duolingo, or Memrise.  Emily mentioned the final Twilight-specific Horror Nerds At Church episode on Breaking Dawn Part 2.


CN: we talk about adoption when discussing the Romans reading.
