Faith in Motion, the Podcast
Hosted by Rev. Kelsey Peterson Beebe, this show explores what it means to have an embodied faith - a faith that comes alive in how we live, move, and love. Together, we slow down, reconnect with God, and learn to practice faith in tangible ways. In this space, you are invited to experience God’s love within and around you, and gently called forward to embody that grace in the world.

Nice Churchy Patriarchy with Liz Cooledge Jenkins
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Patriarchy is neither nice nor particularly Christian, but it shows up in our churches all the time. Liz Cooledge Jenkins tackles this much-needed conversation about the more subtle ways patriarchy weaves its way into church culture and offers us a way forward in her new book, Nice Churchy Patriarchy.
About Liz
Liz Cooledge Jenkins (MDiv) is a writer, preacher, and former college campus minister who lives in the Seattle area with her husband Ken and their black cat Athena. Liz is passionate about building more just faith communities and a more just world. She has a BS in Symbolic Systems (Stanford University) and a Master of Divinity degree. Her writing has appeared in Sojourners, Christians for Social Action, Feminism and Religion, and Red Letter Christians, among other places.

About the Book
Part memoir and part faith-based feminist manifesto, Nice Churchy Patriarchy takes an unflinching look at the ways misogyny’s subtler forms impact every aspect of women’s experiences in church. From leading a church college ministry, to attending seminary, to eventually developing the confidence to preach, Liz Cooledge Jenkins weaves together her own journey with reflections on biblical interpretation, church history, and intersectional feminism.
