Welcome to the very first episode of Reading Queerly, the Queer Theology podcast. In each podcast, we take a queer look at the week’s lectionary reading. We are very excited to kick off this podcast because we firmly believe that passages should be read through a queer lens.


In today’s episode, we read the passage from Psalm 23. We unpacked quite a couple of interesting thoughts and we love to hear from you, too. What did this lectionary reading evoke in you?


Psalm 23

A psalm of David.

The Lord is my shepherd.

    I lack nothing.

He lets me rest in grassy meadows;

    he leads me to restful waters;

    he keeps me alive.


He guides me in proper paths

    for the sake of his good name.


Even when I walk through the darkest valley,

    I fear no danger because you are with me.

Your rod and your staff—

    they protect me.


You set a table for me

    right in front of my enemies.

You bathe my head in oil;

    my cup is so full it spills over!


Yes, goodness and faithful love

    will pursue me all the days of my life,

    and I will live in the Lord’s house

    as long as I live.
