Who Told You That You Were Naked? (Episode 173)

Who Told You That You Were Naked? by Beverly Dale - book cover

Rev. Dr. Beverly Dale, also known as “Rev. Bev,” is a sociologist-turned-pastor who has made a career of teaching a pleasure-centered, justice-focused, and sex-positive Christianity as an ecumenical campus minister at the University of Pennsylvania, as faculty at Lancaster Theological Seminary, and as a local pastor. Her latest book is Who Told You That You Were Naked? Meditations on the Sexual Body from PIlgrim Press. It is a book to help people heal from the problematic teachings about sexuality from the Church by offering tools to help people feel comfortable about their body and pleasure.

Before the featured conversation, co-hosts Robin Renée and Wendy Sheridan share Timeline Cleanse info on an uplifting environmental book and a cat with (at least) two names. The arrest of Ras Baraka and the upcoming June 14th protests are the focus of the Pièce de Résistance segment. Robin reads their new essay, “Fool Me Twice” and Wendy puts forth another principle outlined in On Tyrrany.
