b'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.\\nIn 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.
