Erin Burnett - Religious Not Spiritual: An Autistic Perspective on Faith (N271)

<p>We chat with author of <a href= "https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B09X3NYRG3/ref=nodl_" target="_blank" rel="noopener">With All Your Mind: Autism and the Church</a>, Erin Burnett about her personal experience and research into autism and the unique ways Christians with autism understand and experience God. <br /> We ask her why she was initially attracted to more fundamentalist expressions of Christianity, what triggered her deconstruction, and why she’s now more at home in progressive christian spaces. And we explore what neurotypical people can learn from the ways people with autism experience the world and spirituality.</p> <p>Interviews starts at 13m 45s </p> <p><a href= "https://www.nomadpodcast.co.uk/erin-burnett-religious-not-spiritual-an-autistic-perspective-on-faith-n271/"> Show Notes</a> →</p> <p>Nomad is able to produce episodes like this one because a group of faithful listeners help us pay the bills.
