Dyvon shares his experience growing up in a white community as a Brown person, questioning religious authority from a very young age, and coming to understand Christianity as a cultural system beyond salvation. 

Taylor has dedicated most of her education and career to healthy community & youth development. Here she shares about the role  religion and spirituality have played in finding her passions. She also uses her background in social work to lay out some practical changes religious spaces need to be making. So far Taylor is the only mother I've interviewed, so I also appreciated the perspectives she shared on parenting in the 2020s. 

I really enjoyed chatting with my friend (and our SD composer) Lex Kohrs about his life. Over the hour we learn about his love for music in religious spaces and how he waited for just the right time to come out as gay. He also has a new book available on Amazon, so be sure to order Now We're Not Strangers Anymore! 

This is the final installment in a trilogy of episodes about my life. My partner (Dyvon Melling) interviews me about the year of 2020. Covering the most heartbreaking and definitive year of my life, we discuss my relationship with my parents, interracial dating, civil rights, antidepressants, and so much more. 

This is the second in a trilogy of episodes about my life. My partner (Dyvon Melling) interviews me about my college days and moving to LA. In this time of my life, I tested the waters and learned what life could offer outside of fundamentalist Christianity. 

This is the first in a trilogy of episodes about my life. My partner (Dyvon Melling) interviews me about my childhood as a missionary in rural Michigan. While there were many joys, we mostly discuss the subtle and traumatic pieces I am now processing in therapy. 

This episode is a journey! Listen along as Alyssa walks us through her life. We hit it all: finger guns at first communion, theater god complexes, the quest to lose her virginity, her recent battle to defeat perfectionism, and much more.  

My dear friend Emilee and I chat about youth group culture, discerning anxiety from spiritual conviction, deciding to not attend a christian college *gasp*, and how medical school has shaped her view on the world. 

Join my conversation with Ryn as she shares about her own struggles with mental health, her experiences in white Christian spaces, and why she prioritizes people who need people. 

Join us as Josh shares his story about growing up SUPER CHRISTIAN, learning to give himself and others grace, and recognizing the immense privilege the Christian Church holds in America.
