Millennial Theologian Jasmine (Jazz) Logan is back in the studio for Episode 32.
During this conversation, Jazz candidly shares her experience as #churchgirl who grew up in the evangelical Christian church. From her perspective the #colorblind ideals of the church actually negated her experience as an African American girl growing up Christian. There were times when she felt that the church not only did not recognize the uniqueness of her experience as being a minority on the church campus but actively pointed out her differences and in same cases 'disciplined' her for them.
In Episode 32, Theologian Jasmine Logan shatters the narrative that black girls setting boundaries are #angryblackwomen. We also learn how through purposeful healing (Jesus plus therapy), Jazz was able to heal her #churchhurt and found a path to her personal relationship with God.
Jasmine “Jazz” Logan (she/her) is a third-year student at Wake Forest University School of Divinity. Jazz is from Arizona but most recently lived in Los Angeles, California, before attending WFU School of Divinity. Jazz has aspirations of becoming an ordained minister (denomination pending) and has a passion for teaching the next generation that they are beloved. Jazz will join That Social Work Lady Podcast as cohost for Episodes 33 - 34.
