In this episode of Our Lady of Perpetual Brunch, host Stephen Stanley engages in a lively discussion with Jeza Belle, a drag performer, Bible scholar, and accomplished author.
The conversation covers Jeza's journey navigating her Jewish and Christian upbringing, her studies at a conservative Southern religious college, the intersection of her faith with her drag persona, her motivations behind writing her award-winning book, Jeza's Jesus Juice, and her recent and upcoming LGBTQ+ historical fiction books.
Jeza shares her insights on pride, grace, and radical inclusivity within the LGBTQ+ community and beyond.
You can see more about Jeza on her website iamjezabelle. And be sure to check out links to her writings, including her award-winning devotional Jeza's Jesus Juice, and her new novel Abomination: The Story of David and Jonathan.
