About this listen

Real stories of LGBTQ+ folx navigating faith, identity, and everything in between. The podcast is a narrative storytelling series at the intersection of queerness and faith. Each episode features personal narratives of queer folx as they wrestle with, walk away from, reclaim or reimagine their place in Christian communities. Grounded in empathy, the podcast affirms that queer people are fully beloved by God. The series invites listeners to hear, hold and honor the stories that the church often left untold. Whether you're queer, an ally, or simply curious—there’s space for you here.Taylor Reed Spirituality

  • Look at the Fruit
    May 13 2025

    What happens when the faith you were handed no longer matches the fruit you see in the lives of queer folx around you?

    In this episode, Tiffany Dawn, writer, speaker, and host of Outgrowing the Good Christian Girl, shares her powerful journey from a black-and-white understanding of scripture to a more expansive, affirming faith. Guided by real relationships, deeper biblical study, and the quiet persistence of the Holy Spirit, Tiffany didn’t walk away from her faith, she walked deeper into it.

  • Loving a Queer Person is Liberating
    Apr 30 2025

    In this episode of The Queerly Beloved Podcast, Bri and Caroline—two newly married theologians—share their honest, beautiful journeys of coming out, falling in love, and wrestling with faith, family, and identity.

    Together, they reflect on the pain of rejection, the joy of affirmation, and the unexpected ways love can set all of us free. From late-night prayers to seminary classrooms, their story is a powerful reminder that queer love and deep faith aren’t opposites—they're a force for healing, hope, and transformation.

    As Bri explains, loving a queer person is liberating.

  • Roses, Ranunculuses, Daisies, and Daffodils
    Apr 14 2025

    In this episode of The Queerly Beloved Podcast, Reverend Mother Grace shares her extraordinary journey of faith, identity, and transformation. A Franciscan priest and founder of The Saint Wilgefortis TRANSmission—the only Catholic ministry dedicated to serving the transgender community—Mother Grace opens up about her spiritual calling, coming out later in life, and the sacred work of making all seven sacraments accessible to trans people. With gentleness and clarity, she invites us to imagine the Church not as a gatekeeping institution, but as a garden—vibrant with roses, ranunculuses, daisies, and daffodils—where everyone is meant to bloom.
