This episode was made possible by our incredible patrons who faithfully support the work of amplifying the voices of spiritual abuse survivors.

We are an extremely small team comprised of just two families with a passion for stories and image bears.

We committed early on to not monetizing any of the stories and rely solely on the donations of our Patreon community

to operate. If you value this work and are able to contribute, you can join for as little as $5 a month.

Another way you can support us is by following, rating, and reviewing the podcast. It only takes a

moment, but it has a big impact on our reach. Thank you for

daring to listen. Welcome. This week, we are releasing a previous Instagram live with my dear

friend and fierce advocate, Emily Snook. We talk about the Crusades, Robin Hood, and what do we mean when we say someone is unsafe?

We want to give you a heads up and preemptively apologize that the audio is a bit rough at some points.

But promise, this conversation is so worth it.

I'm John A Harris, and this is at the bus stop by the Bodies Behind the Bus podcast.

Well, thank you so much for taking a few minutes out of your day to come talk to us about

Robin Hood. I'm so excited. You know, I'm very excited. I get to talk about medieval church history.

Well, let me set everybody up for a second. And then I'm just going to hand the floor to you

and you're just going to hit us with some of your wisdom. I was talking with Emily last week, two weeks ago, and we were just discussing what it

looks like to inhabit an advocacy space and like how do we draw boundaries and how do we

discern who we platform or don't platform or how do we even exist as ourselves?

And like, what are our things that are like, this is our line in the sand?

And from that sparked this like incredibly brilliant conversation that Emily just like,

I mean, of course, I was just like, you know what that reminds me of the Crusades.

And I was like, oh my gosh, we have to share this conversation with this community because it was just like, we were doing it over Boxer.

And so I'm listening to it as I'm driving.
