Listen, I don't know who you are, why you're here, and the room was silent because we were all standing in a circle and everyone's eyes were on me, because at that time the boyfriend wasn't out, and I was like, oh dear god, like I'm just this gay friend who is here and he goes, but you right here right now is enough, and this is all you will ever have to be. It's just really beautiful.
Ever wondered how spirituality and drag can intersect in meaningful ways? In this episode, Bonnie Violet, a queer chaplain, takes us on a personal journey through her experiences with religion, genderqueerness, and the art of drag. She opens up about the moments that reshaped her understanding of faith, sharing both the challenges and triumphs along the way. Bonnie recounts a pivotal encounter with a stranger who affirmed her worth, a moment that profoundly impacted her healing journey from religious trauma.
The episode also features an insightful conversation with Ms. Penny Cost, a drag performer who delves into how drag can serve as a spiritual practice and a form of resistance against traditional gender norms. Bonnie and Ms. Penny Cost explore the idea that drag is more than just performance—it's a powerful expression of identity and spirituality.
Additionally, Bonnie offers a fresh take on the biblical story of Joseph's coat, challenging conventional gender roles and emphasizing the importance of embracing one's unique self. Throughout the episode, Bonnie's candidness and heartfelt reflections create a welcoming space for listeners to contemplate their own spiritual paths. Whether you're part of the LGBTQIA+ community or simply curious about the intersections of faith and identity, this episode provides thought-provoking insights and a sense of community.
