Madang Podcast: Wil Gafney Ep.11

Welcome to Madang. Madang is the outdoor living room of the world. Here, we invite you to sit and tune into unreserved, remarkable conversations with renown authors, leaders, public figures and scholars on religion, culture and everything in-between.   This has been a dream of mine for many years and now it is. reality. Please join me at Madang.   This is the eleventh episode of Madang where I converse with Dr. Wil Gafney.   The Rev. Dr. Wil Gafney is the Right Rev. Sam B. Hulsey Professor of Hebrew Bible at Brite Divinity School in Fort Worth, Texas. She is the author of Womanist Midrash: A Reintroduction to Women of the Torah and of the Throne, a commentary on Nahum, Habakkuk, and Zephaniah in the Wisdom series; Daughters of Miriam; and co-editor of The Peoples’ Bible and The Peoples’ Companion to the Bible. She is an Episcopal priest canonically resident in the Diocese of Pennsylvania and licensed in the Diocese of North Texas, and a former Army chaplain and congregational pastor in the AME Zion Church. She is the author of A Women’s Lectionary for the Whole Church and translator of its biblical selections; the first two volumes, Year A and W (a stand alone volume). And we are here today to discuss these 2 volumes.  Conversations on her recent Sabbatical Grant from Louisville Institute, using twitter and social media in classroom, Jesus and Hagar, the use of the term ‘majesty’ and not 'kingdom", not using racialized binary, gender expansive language and more.
