October 15, 2024 Chapel Probation s4: "Julie" Former EV School Math Teacher Tells All
"Julie," (not her real name) has been listening to Chapel Probation for a while and came to a SoCal ExVangelical hang at my house a few months ago. She told me about her time teaching at a well-known Christian school in the area, and I was struck by how similar our stories were. Like me, the whole experience contributed greatly to her deconstruction, forcing her to choose her humanity over the bigotry embedded in evangelical culture, particularly against LGBTQIA people. Julie tells her story of how she got into and out of this culture and how she has been able maintain a relationship with her parents, especially her mom, who is a pastor.

September 24, 2024 Chapel Probation s4- Blake Chastain: Author of ExVangelical and Beyond
Long before most of us were a glint in the eye of today's deconstruction world, Blake Chastain created the Exvangelical hashtag and Facebook group, giving the world the title and the framework for the good, bad, and the ugly of all things related to deconstruction. He also started the Irreverent Media Group bringing together so many great podcasts like the Dirty Rotten Church Kids, Straight White American Jesus, Go Home Bible, You're Drunk, God Has Not Given, Speaking in Church, and of course, the mothership: Exvangelical. These podcasts, that Facebook group, and the hashtag were the bedrock of the deconstruction world. Since then, as you'll hear me rant about, many more voices have entered the fray, some of them great, some of them...not so great. But however you feel about White former pastors with tattoos taking up too much space, Blake has written an incredible book, Exvangelical and Beyond, giving the history of both evangelicalism and our current movement away from it. Compared to some insipid influencers just telling you that racism and homophobia are bad, Blake's book is an actual pillar of information and truth.

September 17, 2024 Chapel Probation s4- Desiree McCullough- From SBC Pastors Wife to Sexual Empowerment
Earlier this year, I read an amazing piece in the Huffington Post about a woman who was once a pastor's wife who left the church and ended up opening up her marriage to explore dating and sexuality for the first time. I immediately thought this woman would fit in beautifully with our Content Warning community...only to discover she had actually been at Content Warning. I somehow didn't meet her there, but it made sense. And having her on Chapel Probation to tell her story and talk about her new explorations of her body and her sexual identity was a real honor. Yes, the SBD is a clusterfuck of patriarchy and sexual abuse, and we talk about that, but I hope you come away from this conversation with a new perspective of life and identity that can only exist outside of Christianity.
And sign up for Desiree's Substack here to read more.

This week we are joined by a special guest, our dear friend
Keiko Agena. Keiko is best known for her role as Lane Kim on the show Gilmore
Girls, but she is also a writer, artist, and beloved member of our AAPI arts

dangers and harms to young women inside of purity culture. Gilmore Girls

September 03, 2024 Chapel Probation s4- Hannah Lee: Korean American Church, Ski Pants Demon, and Purity Culture Survivor and Artist
Hannah Lee knew early on that life inside of her Korean American church was far too restrictive for her. And even though she felt that church life was deeply embedded into life as a Korean American, she saw its limitations as a curious, passionate person who valued art and people outside of the church. From her mom trying to exercise demons who would have her buy ski pants (true story) to the damage of purity culture in the 90's, Hannah broke free in early adulthood and has carved out a life outside. She found queer community and art to replace Christianity and Purity Culture even as she continues to find ways to connect to her family.

August 27, 2024 Chapel Probation s4- The Horny Chapel Episode 2
In this second episode, we're still introducing ourselves, and we compare our experiences as Asian Americans from different generations and in different kinds of churches. But there are still incredible similarities between our experiences...bad ones, mostly. Scott's experiences as a Gen X-er in the 80's was less intense than Priska's Millenial experiences in the 90's, but both were rife with guilt, shame, and racism. And sexism, of course. We basically tie it all together in this episode: race, gender, purity, and a struggle to find ourselves inside the christian world. We round up the episode with some observations about some AAPI christian churches, good and bad.
This is the article Scott mentions about ⁠Korean Churches dealing with domestic violence.⁠

August 20, 2024 Chapel Probation s4- Marla Taviano Returns to Talk Poem Art Therapy and Terrible Christian Men
Marla Taviano returns this week to talk about how her latest book of poetry, Poem Art Therapy, can help all women who've been through terrible marriages and divorces in the christian world. Just as her White Girl Learning work reflects Marla's journey as she decolonizes her mind regarding race, Poem Art Therapy reflects her clap back against patriarchy and shitty christian marriages and men. She reads from her book at the end and the episode wraps with a track from Scott's old band, Band Moto, that perfectly represents Marla's and our feeling towards terrible men.
For the first time I'm including music Dave and I did with our old band, ⁠Band Moto⁠. So be warned.

August 13, 2024 Chapel Probation s4- Clare McIvor- Australian NAR Homeschooling Survivor
Clare McIvor grew up in the toxic Christian Nationalist movement known as the New Apostolic Reformation. This included all of those damn 7 Mountains, and it forced her to deny all of the natural aspects of her humanity. After fighting to get out, she has educated herself and armed herself with knowledge and courage to fight against that world and its insidious agenda to take over the world for White fundamentalist Jesus.
You can find all of Clare's work here.
