What does it mean to be sent by Jesus exactly as we are—queer, questioning, trans, two-spirit, tired, joyful, and holy?

In this powerful episode, we explore Luke 10:1–20, where Jesus sends out 72 followers with no script, no sandals—just peace in their hands and heaven in their hearts. From the Burnaby Pride Picnic to the Kitsilano Street Party, host [Your Name] reflects on queer joy as sacred resistance, shares stories of radical belonging, and speaks directly to anyone who’s ever been told their name doesn’t belong in heaven.

We also cover:

🌱 NEW EPISODE — “Seeds and Shelter: A Father’s Day Reflection from the Queer Church” 🎙️🏳️‍🌈

Father’s Day can bring joy, grief, confusion—or all three. In this powerful episode, we reclaim fatherhood through a queer spiritual lens, drawing from today’s lectionary (Mark 4, Ezekiel 17, 2 Corinthians 5) and lived stories from our community.

✨ Hear from:

– A trans dad raising joy in East Van

– A nonbinary “school dad” who nurtures healing

– A drag elder planting hope in the cracks

– A prayer for those grieving, growing, or just holding on

📖 “The Kingdom of God is like a mustard seed…”

💬 “If anyone is in Christ, there is a new creation.”

🌳 Today, we honor the ones who shelter, nurture, and father justice into the world.
