Hi, I’m Isabela, host of the Amateur Activist Podcast where we talk about big social, political and sometimes theological issues. Join me and my guests as we try to understand topics that sometimes seem too big or too nuanced. We don’t have all the answers and we certainly don’t have the resources to make a big impact but we have our voices. I invite you to join me in these conversations that are sometimes complex and uncomfortable. I’m not qualified nor do I have the capacity to be all in all the time. But I’ll attempt to change the world regardless because I believe we deserve better.

Monster Theory: Looking at Revelation Through its Monsters with Joel Hingston (revist)

This week Isabela is joined by Joel Hingston. Joel used to teach biblical studies and theology, specifically Johannine literature and Revelation. He is passionate about apocalyptic literature, ancient texts & cultures, music, guitares, Magic the Gathering, and myth.

In this episode, Joel and Isabela briefly go over key aspects of Revelation, providing quick context and settling some confusion of discomfort aroung some of the unsettling and weird imagery within the book. Joel explains the history of monster theory, it’s main claim and goal, how it can be used within biblical studies, and why it might be important for us as activists.

When you get a moment, I’d really appreciate it if you left a review on Apple Podcasts and/or rated us on Spotify.
