Summary
In this Favored or Forsaken episode, we’re talking all about the recent Southern Baptist Convention Guidepost Report. This was originally released as a Mini-Favored or Forsaken episode on Patreon, but our Bible Binge Seminarians said that this was an episode that everyone needed to hear! You’ll hear Jamie and Erin talk about an experience that intersected with this report as well as answers to some listener questions. Just a warning: this episode contains references to both sexual abuse and suicide, so please take that into consideration as you listen.

| 0:00.0 | Hello and welcome to Favourite or Forsaken. I'm your host and resident Babel Scholar, |
| 0:19.0 | Erin Moon, because the Babelbench episodes are mostly looking backwards. Favourite or |
| 0:22.9 | Forsaken is an episode devoted to looking to the present and the future, as we consider |
| 0:27.3 | current events, through the religious lens to decide if they are favored or forsaken. Joining |
| 0:32.9 | me on this faith-based journey, the one, the only Jamie Beth Golden. Jamie, are you feeling |
| 0:38.8 | personally favored or forsaken for us? Forsaken? Why? Well, the world's a dumpster fire. |
| 0:43.6 | But it is also the first week of June. It is 98 degrees outside. Why is it so far? And I |
| 0:51.1 | get it. I know we live in the deep south and this is what it's never eyes a child. It was |
| 0:55.3 | always in the 80s. I don't know. It's just the hot. But also, it's just me here on this |

| 1:33.7 | and our own experience being on staff at Southern Babdist adjacent, both church and |
| 1:39.7 | paratrooper organizations, and a story from our past that intersected in the strangest |
| 1:45.3 | way, weirdly, with the pop cast, too. So we share a little bit about that. And so Knox |
| 1:49.3 | was not in that conversation. Initially, that's why he's not here today. He's also on |
| 1:53.0 | vacation this week. So he couldn't hop in for these bumpers because we are going to |
| 1:56.9 | obviously end with our favorite at the month. And we decided to do this because really |
