Recorded live at Vanderbilt Divinity School in Nashville, TN, just last month, we reconnect with season 1 guests, Zack Eccleston, Maria Michonski, and Lee Catoe, about the importance of storytelling for LGBTQIA+ people of faith. Hearing their voices again was a reminder that our stories are never completely finished. We catch up with where they have been since their episodes from 2018, how telling their story on the show impacted them, and how they view their faith and their communities today.


Connect with the panel and listen to their original episodes: Zack Eccleston (@zackleston), Episode 101 / Maria Michonski (@mini_michonski), Episode 102 / Lee Catoe (@locatoe), Episode 105


We mentioned a few resources throughout the episode, including Unashamed: A Coming Out Guide for LGBTQ Christians by Amber Cantorna and The Reformation Project by Matthew Vines. Also mentioned was the story of Jesus healing the Gerasene Demoniac (Mark 5:1-20).
