Deconstructing Harmful Theology and Building Community with Kristian A Smith


Listen Later

Pastor Kristian A Smith, a Cultural Curator, and community builder help his clients and congregants develop how they see themselves on the inside and how others see them externally. He understands that God looks at your heart and humans look at your outer appearance - and his mission is to help you maximize both! With Shaun’s upbringing in the church and his own life values, he finds himself relating to Kristian’s messages. Listen in as he discusses the process of deconstructing bad theology and helping us understand what the church is in today's society.


Kristian joins us on today’s episode to discuss:

  • Religion being taught to children at such a young age and how it can pressure them 
  • Finding the right words to say to children 
  • Growing up with religion but feeling otherwise as you mature 
  • What exactly is “sin”?
  • The bible and whether or not it is accurate
  • Kristian’s story of how he found his community through social media
