Dr. Amy Laura Hall is Assoc. Prof. of Christian Ethics at Duke Divinity School and the author of several books including Kierkegaard and the Treachery of Love; Conceiving Parenthood: American Protestantism and the Spirit of Reproduction; Writing Home, With Love: Politics for Neighbors and Naysayers; and Laughing at the Devil: Seeing the World with Julian of Norwich. 

Many will find our conversation highly engaging and fun while others may just get ticked off! Here's some of what we discuss:

  • Who are "they"?
  • The ministry of "that sucks!"
  • Descending that damn escalator
  • "...beautifully and wonderfully made gay by God..."
  • Muscular Christianity
  • Welcome to the “tzitzka-macha club”
  • Plus, a cameo by Lisa Nathan

As you'll find, Amy Laura happens to be the most gracious, thoughtful, empathetic spit-fire of an activist, minister, teacher, mother, good trouble maker Durham’s ever seen!
