Wow. Nice feminist under tones. Celebrating daughters that will likely become reviling wives per Titus 2

The first show was fascinating and contained some very useful information about the Quiverfull movement. I do hope you are planning to have more episodes because the interviewers ask excellent questions and allow the guest to speak openly about their experiences.
Apple Podcasts5123 and 321United States2 years ago - Immature
The host is highly immature and the guests often are equally as immature. No depth and essentially making fun of church norms across the board while celebrating ridiculously immature responses to purposeful parenting or leadership within a religious organization. Kind of stupid. In addition, the host needs to please stop talking like she’s a sorority girl trying to sound grownup. Falling flat.

I wasn’t raised in a Christian home but am a Jesus follower. I think I’ve known people along the way with stories like this who’s parents were well intentioned and afraid of the “world”. It’s sad that Christianity is often taught Jesus + a laundry list of rules… I’m grateful I was not exposed to these cultish practices because it sounds pretty awful. The only reason I’m not giving this a 5 is because this seems especially focused on the one Gothard movement (and there are so many to explore) and... more
Apple Podcasts4vbchickieUnited States3 years ago - Can We Please Stop?
Great podcast and interviewers. Important and fascinating topics. I’m addressing the few bad reviews for this that I’ve seen: Can we please stop shaming women for using their natural voices? Culture shapes how people talk. You can’t just unlearn the life long cultural training of how you speak because you have a podcast. Plus, lots of these women (including the hosts) were (obviously) raised in/joined groups that put a lot of pressure on traditional gender roles and taught females to speak in ce... more
