Season 2, Episode 31: The Road to Divinity (School) with Jasmine Logan
That Social Work Lady welcomes Jasmine (Jazz) Logan to the studio for Episode 31.
In Episode 31, millennial theologian Jasmine Logan and I delve into how the contemporary church has outed itself as a the white supremacist christian church of America. Logan holds no punches in her description of the ways the religion of a 'color blind' Jesus does harm to children and youth in the church who do not happen to be white or male or heterosexual. Some may call her ideas radical. Other call them in direct alignment with the actual teachings of the historical Christ.
Jazz's take on religion, spirituality and Christianity is eye opening and jaw dropping. Listening to Jazz gave me insight into why so many millennials have left the church. She also gives insight into how some millennials are leaving behind the religious practices of their childhood for an inclusive spiritualism that fuels their social activism.
Jasmine “Jazz” Logan (she/her) is a third-year student at Wake Forest University School of Divinity. Jazz is from Arizona but most recently lived in Los Angeles, California, before attending WFU School of Divinity. Jazz has aspirations of becoming an ordained minister (denomination pending) and has a passion for teaching the next generation that they are beloved. Jazz will join That Social Work Lady Podcast as cohost for Episodes 33 - 34.
