Joanna Whaley Podcast
Joanna Whaley is a transgender woman who was an evangelical pastor for most of her career. When Joanna was outed by her church and fired for being LGBTQ, she began to advocate for the rights of all people to have access to faith after that moment. This show will be full of storytelling and discussing the experiences of LGBTQ people in faith.
