All Means All: Queer, Christian, and Voting

In this candid Election Day conversation, Anny Stevens-Gleason and Tym House reflect on first votes, growing up in conservative church cultures, and how Anglican/Episcopal identity invites us to be “in the world, but not of it.” We explore the rise of Christian nationalism, the harm of legislating against trans folks, and why governing people’s humanity is not the Gospel. We also talk about civic engagement vs. politics, the “pendulum swing” of change, and where we still find joy and hope. The episode closes with prayers from the Episcopal tradition—for the human family and for wise elections.
