Aimee Byrd, formerly a solid and credible writer with a large influence, has apostatized. She left her long-time denomination (OPC) and found solace in a United Methodist church led by a female pastor who preached with a newborn strapped to her side and her toddler running around the sanctuary. In this article and podcast, I chronicle Byrd's departure from the faith. It took ten years for her to go from fervently affirming complementarianism within a conservative denomination, to avowing survivor style victories of alleged misogyny lodged against her and moving to a church led by a woman.
I end with a warning that apostasy is real, can happen to anyone: you and/or me. Take heed of your faith, ladies!
There are lots of links substantiating everything I spoke of in the podcast. Check out the blog to see them.
