Mary & Eve, 2017 — Scott Erickson
Where did it all begin?
Maybe you grew up in the church, but don’t feel connected to its teachings. Maybe you’ve wondered what role women really played in the Bible. Maybe you’ve tried to reconcile theology with your social justice beliefs. Or maybe, you’ve spent time reinterpreting scripture, only to wonder where Christianity ends and a new set of beliefs begin.
If any of this sounds like you, we hope you’ll join us on this journey of rediscovery and reinterpretation.
Welcome to SHE/HERmeneutics, a bold and thought-provoking podcast where theology meets feminist and gender studies. Join our hosts as they dive deep into sacred texts, challenging traditional interpretations and illuminating the often-overlooked voices of women in the Bible.
Each episode will explore themes like:
Women’s roles and representation in scripture
The gender of God and divine embodiment
Gender-inclusive pronouns for God — Would they mind?
Sanctified suffering and spiritual resilience
Reimagining biblical narratives through feminist hermeneutics
What is Hermeneutics?
In other words, Hermeneutics is the art and science of interpretation — especially of sacred texts. In this space, we reclaim it as a tool for justice, inclusion, and radical rethinking. SHE/HERmeneutics isn’t just about reading the Bible differently—it’s about reading it truthfully, with eyes wide open to power, patriarchy, and possibility.
Whether you're a scholar, seeker, skeptic, or spiritual wanderer, this podcast invites you to wrestle with scripture in ways that are liberating, layered, and unapologetically feminist.
New episodes drop weekly, starting in 2026.
