So this is out in the world! And I get to shout out so many people whose work I admire too (not that they need it) 😀
When your bank holiday "just for funsies" reading arrives 😁
From the Female Corporeality and Religion Conference in Leuven to finally being out there (and open access).... You can download my article 'Restricted More as a Daughter: The Interaction between Gender and Disability in the Gospel of Luke' now: poj.peeters-leuven.be/content.php?...
And off I go to the Leeds Disability Studies Conference 2026 for a panel on religion with @krysiawally.bsky.social, @naomijacobs.bsky.social and Brian Irvine.
@mbrandonmassey.bsky.social , I am publicising 'Rewriting Jesus: Forgotten Pasts and Possible Futures' as promised!
When you are actually excited to review a book... I mean, it's beautiful and I haven't even opened it yet.
I told you it was going to be awesome. I did. Now I am allowed to saw who (and, yes, the book is fab 😊)
The latest of our Practical Theology collab articles is out now! This one is by the awesome @karenod.bsky.social so you know you need to read it. It's genuinely fabulous and also outlines a bit of how the FTN came to be, a tweet from a sun lounger and here we are:

Now we have quite a strong stomach for comedy in our house, but I was beyond disappointed by Lizzo in The Roast of Kevin Hart. When your teenager turns and says, twice in the set, "Isn't that ableism, Mum?" and there's no way it can be identified as anything else...
Last one from me today, promise. We have been asked to post our upcoming events calendar on here, so your wish is my command... To quote the Lego Movie, "Everything is awesome..." - I genuinely can't pick my favourite, so just come to everything!
