Fire Poppies and the Subtext: Savannah Locke on Finding the Sacred in Pop Culture

<p>Can a Netflix series or a Gilmore Girls rerun carry a word from God? On this episode of Complex Creatures, Rev. Dr. Jarrod Longbons sits down with singer, author, and podcaster Savannah Locke, co-host of The Subtext, to talk about reading pop culture for its spiritual undercurrents. Savannah shares the fire poppy that became her life metaphor, why she threw a phone-free album launch for Songs of Peace in Times of War, and how a scene in Gilmore Girls opened up new names for God. They wrestle with shrinking attention spans, Paul Kingsnorth&#39;s Against the Machine, the strange success of Theo of Golden, and what it means to read the Bible against ourselves rather than as a weapon. A thoughtful case for paying attention.
