b'Once in a while, we have those off days/weeks when things don\\u2019t go according to plan and it\\u2019s alright. What\\u2019s important is that we all take things in stride and move along whatever obstacles have been thrown our path, and that\\u2019s what we are doing this week.\\nIn today\\u2019s episode, we are sharing a throwback episode where we took a break from the regular lectionary to talk about queer sacred sites. Two years ago, Brian released a video about his experience on Fire Island and how he realized that it\\u2019s a sacred place. Fr. Shay talks about his holy experience at a small-town gay bar. And we invite you to consider the sacred sites, rituals, and experiences in your life that might have gone unnoticed before.\\n\\nLearn how to queer the Bible and tell your own queer, Christian stories like this.\\nKey takeaways:\\n\\nUpdates from Fr.
