Many of us grew up in churches where our love for God was determined by how much of yourself you sacrificed for the sake of eternal salvation. You attended every service and every event. You served on as many ministry teams as you could, stretching y... more
Growing up, the book of Revelation and the feeling of fear went hand on hand. It was the book of the Bible used to convince us to follow Christ. Books and movies have been made in efforts to bring Revelation to life.

Enjoyed a good cigar listening to this show.
A breath of fresh freaking air! Insightful, candid, and informative. First learned of this community from Waving The Red Flag pod when Kristian guested. 🙌🏾Love it here.
This is an excellent and insightful podcast, and Most importantly, the cast is hilarious. Talking about real issues can be a lot sometimes. The cast does a great job addressing the real but makes it digestible for folks like me who use humor as medicine. I can't get my ratchet, righteous, theological, and worldly fix right here! I love it here.
I love this podcast. I grew up a preacher’s kid and have been on my deconstructing journey for a few years. These conversations need to be had, and I think it’s great to show the intersectionality between deconstructing and maintaining some sort of belief system in healthy ways while also understanding the emotional impacts of harmful theology. Keep the conversations going!
