In this episode, Resident Bible Scholar Erin Moon takes us on a deep dive into the faith adjacency of that saintly and saucy Regency author, Jane Austen. You know her for her popular works such as Pride and Prejudice, Emma, and Sense and Sensibility, but in this episode, we examine her life to see how her faith might have influenced these classic writings. Join us as we uncover Jane’s prayer life, discuss whether or not her writings can be considered Christian fiction, and find out just what she had to say about biblical womanhood as we search for God in the pages and life of Jane Austen. MENTIONSDr. Karen Swallow Prior: Website | Twitter | Instagram | On Reading Well | Sense and Sensibility Jane Austen Books Mentioned: Pride and Prejudice | Sense and Sensibility | Mansfield Park | EmmaTell me more about dripping wet Colin FirthHere’s where you can plan a post-pandemic trip to England with Hidden Britain Tours  Take a tour of Jane’s HouseCassandra the Artist: Mary Queen of Scots inspired by JaneRead: Jane Austen and the Clergy by Irene CollinsBible Passages Referenced: James 1:27Read about Jael in the BibleMansfield Park Deep Dive: In Defense of Fanny PriceRead: The Book of Common Prayer All things Jane Austen: The Jane Austen Center | Fan Site More on Jane Austen’s Faith: Salvation and Society in Georgian England | The Christian Faith of Jane AustenErin’s Source Materials: Jane Austen: A Life by Claire Tomalin | Jane Austen at Home by Lucy Worsley | Jane Austen’s Letters compiled by Deirdre La Faye | A Memoir of Jane Austen by James Edward Austen-Leigh | Praying with Jane by Rachel Dodge | Jane Austen’s England by Roy Adkins | The Life and Works of Jane Austen by Devoney Looser | The Parson’s Daughter by Irene CollinYOUR HOSTResident Bible Scholar Erin Moon is a Bible study editor and Senior Creative/Producer at The Popcast Media Group from Birmingham.
