Emmy and Natalia welcome special guest Meta Herrick Carlson so we can all nerd out together on this holy day and why it matters more than ever this year. www.patreon.com/cafeteriachristian www.metaherrickcarlson.com Join us this Advent!

#334 I'm Going To Steal The Infancy Gospel of Thomas
Summary: Get ready for an auditory Powerpoint presentation on supernatural horror flicks and non-canonical gospels because Emmy took the wheel on this one re the forthcoming release of The Carpenter's Son, a supernatural horror film based on (we're not kidding) the Infancy Gospel of Thomas and starring Nicolas Cage as Jesus' father Joseph. The Carpenter's Son Trailer Nic Cage hunts for the Holy Grail The Five Gospels Infancy Gospel of Thomas in translation Fun fact skipped for time: The oldest existing fragment of the IGT might be a student's handwriting practice www.patreon.com/cafeteriachristian
Cafeteria Christian started as a place for people who love Jesus but are so over the version of Christianity that forgets love, justice, and curiosity.
Hosted by Pastor Natalia Terfa and Pastor Emmy Kegler, the show is a mix of faith conversations, cultural commentary, and the beautiful, complicated mess of trying to follow Jesus in the real world. From biblical deep dives to big feelings about the world, Emmy and Natalia create a space where honesty and hope coexist.
Together, we're reclaiming the term "Cafeteria Christian" — because when it comes to faith, you really can take what you like and leave the rest.
