Show Notes

Dr. Robyn Henderson-Espinoza. Dr. Robyn has been described in many different ways: a scholar-activist, scholar-leader, thought-leader, teacher, public theologian, ethicist, and poet. 

Among these ways of describing Dr. Robyn, they are also a visionary thinker who has spent two decades working in the hybrid space of church, academy, & movements seeking to not only disrupt but dismantle supremacy culture by focusing their PhD studies on new concepts of being & becoming, and  decolonizing knowledge production.

They enflesh a deep hope of collaborating in these hybrid spaces where their work seeks to contribute to the ongoing work of collective liberation.  

The sermon we talk about in this episode is called “Hope as Defiant.” Preached at a United Methodist Church in New York during Pride Weekend, Dr. Robyn felt compelled to talk about a necessary component of activism and faith….hope. And in the midst of the brokenness and hurt in our world this hope needs to be bold, resilient, defiant. 

In this conversation we take a deep dive into this defiant hope and its implications on how we participate in the world.
