Description

Are you navigating faith, family, sexuality, and identity as an LGBTQIA+ person at the intersections of feminism, spirituality and queerness? Are you an ally tired of religious distortions of hate and exclusion? This is your invitation to pull up a chair and join us at the kitchen table. On Mondays, we host deep, liberating conversations with theologians, elders, and everyday saints about sacred resistance, gender justice, and decolonial faith. On Wednesdays, we offer Love Letters from Rev. Sex, a Southern Queer feminist and Latine pastor with an activist's heart and a theologian's mind. On select Fridays, we offer our special feature, Sounds Like Soulforce, which invites you into the mosaic of our organization's people, our passions, and our projects, sharing dispatches from across the Americas about how to recognize and resist white Christian Supremacy.


Hosted by Reverend Sex (Rev. Alba Onofrio - Executive Director of Soulforce), this podcast channel offers connection, reflection, and community for anyone feeling spiritually marginalized or exiled but still resiliently faithful. It’s a space for exploration as we seek to create change while sharing the experience, wisdom, and connections Soulforce has built as a social justice nonprofit organization over the last 30 years. 

The current feature on our channel is Shameless Theology, or Teología Sin Vergüenza (TSV), a unique podcast that amplifies ferocious Queer-Trans, feminist, academically-trained Latine theologians who are living examples of counter-narratives and theological resistance to the political and religious threats our people face. This season forefronts our newly released book: Spiritual Violence: Religious Phenomena that Defile the Faith. This timely resource identifies and examines the consequences of white Christian Supremacy through historical context and case studies, centering lived experiences of marginalized people, and offers critical analysis and practical tools for healing and resistance.     

This media project is the first of its kind: a woman-led and queer-centered conversation space where Latine faith activists and theologians convene digitally across the Americas to discuss the alternatives to death-dealing theologies of Christian fundamentalisms that kill our spirits and impede our progress to equal rights and human dignity — all from an unapologetically politicized faith perspective.

Join in our community of Sinvergüenzas by visiting our Shameless Theology homepage or our Spanish WhatsApp Lista de Difusión. If you’d like to support this cutting-edge movement of ferocious Latine power building, please make a donation.
