March 16, 2018 No More Hagiography (Blake didn't like The Atlantic piece)
In this minisode, Blake talks somewhat extemporaneously about the hagiography written by Michael Gerson in The Atlantic fighting for the term "evangelical." Which is really hard when we know the biographies of evangelicalism's leaders so well. Intro: "Bloom Key" by Broke for Free. Follow Blake on twitter @brchastain.

February 28, 2018 Delisa Perry, Part 2
This week, Delisa Perry returns for part two of her story. This is a shorter, lo-fi episode; when we last spoke, we had some technical issues that interfered with allowing us to fully explore Delisa's story. So we rectified that. Be sure to check out Part 1 as well. Follow Delisa on Twitter @\_DelisaPerry, and follow me @brchastain.

February 06, 2018 Tori Glass (Re-Release)
This week I'm happy to re-release this conversation I had last year with Tori Williams Douglass (@ToriGlass on Twitter). She and I discuss her history, as well as how the death of Michael Brown altered her understanding of white evangelicalism. We also discuss her must-read blog post, "The Day I Learned White Christians Hate Me." Read it here: toriglassdotcom.wordpress.com/2017/08/08…s-hate-me/ This a frank discussion about race that centers Tori's experience. Follow her on Twitter @ToriGlass, and read her work at toriglassdotcom.wordpress.com. No pre-roll intros this week - I had a cold and nobody needs to hear that. Join the FB group by searching "Exvangelical" on Facebook and answering the three brief questions. Follow me on Twitter @brchastain. Support the show on Patreon at patreon.com/exvangelicalpod.
