Molly Tullis

CW: spiritual abuse, cult, mentions of death, manipulation, mentions of sexual abuse, mentions of sexual abuse and sexualization of minors, mentions of grooming of minors We are so incredibly thankful for smut fiction author and Tiktoker, Molly Tullis, for sharing her story with us. Molly is a pastor's kid of a former pastor of the Bethel Redding (think Bethel Music, Jesus Culture, etc.) cult. Molly experienced some deep trauma as a result of her cult upbringing but is now a writer of smut fiction, which seems to be a reclaiming of her purity culture upbringing. Molly is truly wonderful and her books are amazing! So if you enjoy fiction, especially spicy fiction, buy her Romanov Oracle and Asphodel Series books! Additional sections include talking about SCOTUS sucking ass and our new segment, Petty Silly Songs with Gabe.

How To Become TikTok's Pastor Without Really Trying with Gavin Dees

TW: Pretty much every -ism, mentions of Trump, nationalism, genocide, misogyny, sexism, toxic masculinity, pretty much everything toxic about modern Christianity We are officially back y'all! We have missed all of you, and have missed doing this crazy thing. We decided to start season 2 off with a bang. In this episode, we discuss Christian nationalism, a little over a year after the January 6th storm of Capital Hill. We bring in information from people who were at the D.C. riot, from Jesus and John Wayn by Katherine Kobes Du Mez, and a bunch of other stuff. Our news segment quotes a lot from @the_decolonized_christian as we discuss the truckers in Canada and how they relate to Christian nationalism and the mass grave sites of Indigenous children across Canada. We know y'all are wondering what Kenneth has been up to, but he's been quiet! However, Daniel had an unfortunate run-in with Kenneth's best theobros, Brody and Ben. Finally, we end with our new segment, How Are You, Really? Thank you so much for your support. We love all of you. If you don't already support us on Patreon, sign up at patreon.com/angstychristianpod for exclusive merch and future exclusive content once we reach 50 patrons. We will shout you on the pod when you sign up! Rate us, leave us a review, and share our podcast. It helps us gain visibility and we would greatly appreciate it. We are also reading our reviews, so the funnier they are, or more toxic they are, we will likely share it at some point.

Jesus Was the Queerest of the Queers with Joey Reyes

This week the Depression Daddy talks about depression again and the Deconstruction Daddy talks about deconstruction again. For our 11th episode, we just talk freely about where we are at. It's been nearly 6 months since we started the podcast, and we thought it would be good to ask the question, "How are you, really?" (Thank you We're Not Really Strangers). This conversation goes into a bit of an overview of our process the past year or so and then a little bit into witchy stuff like Tarot. For our Fucking News segment, we talk about the worldwide prayer to end atheism and the comedy that ensued as a result, Gabe Gonzalez gives us another petty prayer, and Kenneth gets into more hijinx.Give us a review on Apple Podcasts for a shoutout on the pod!If you or anyone you know would love to share your story on our podcast or give any feedback or join our Discord community, please go to our Linktree!linktr.ee/angstychristianpodFollow us on Instagram and Tiktok: @angstychristianpod@danielcramos@lonestar_jake--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app

Are We (Really) Ok?

Jake and Daniel talk about the concept of the Dark Night of the Soul, a concept written by St. John of the Cross, and referenced in many places. The Dark Night of the Soul, or the Wall as Peter Scazzero calls it, is this point in one's faith journey where their practices and faith no longer seem to work. The person who is in the dark night feels distant from the Divine as if they are no longer present or moving in their life. So Jake and Daniel discuss how this is where deconstruction starts, if not happens in its entirety.New segments: Gabe's Petty Prayers (Gabe Gonzalez) and It's the F*cking News! where we talk about Joshua Harris and the ridiculousness of Christianity Today in The Rise and Fall of Mars Hill trying to elevate him as the Deconstruction Daddy. So this gets a little personal.Follow us on Instagram and Tiktok: @angstychristianpodLinktr.ee/angstychristianpod--- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast.  https://anchor.fm/app
