Betsy Coughlin is an adjunct faculty member in the department of theology and religion at Belmont University in Nashville, TN, where she also earned her Bachelors in English and Religion, and received her M.Div from Boston University. 

In this conversation Betsy and I talk about her evolving faith and religious practice, pain and healing associated with growing up in the conservative church of the South, and the role emotions play in our faith and understanding of God. There are so many good moments in this conversation that I think will connect the dots for many of us who have started to see our faith pull apart at the seams, especially faith in the angry, masculine God and his supporting theology that so many of us have been handed as ultimate truth.

I hope and pray this conversation brings healing and hope and more conversation into your life.
