Will save your soul

I originate out of the evangelical culture described in this podcast: SoCal native, Republican family, private Christian school, church camp leader, the works. I still proudly call myself a Christian today and but am fundamentally against the movement that spoon fed me a toxic combination of nationalism, homophobia, chauvinism, and greed during my youth.

For me it was a decade long journey through getting out of the orange bubble, meeting people outside my normal circles, a lot of painful emotional struggles, and deep study that made me finally realize that I was sold a false bag of goods and that for me to find peace I had to be Christian but leave evangelicalism in its current form behind.

I really wish I had a podcast like this ten years ago that could help explain how exactly a movement that proclaims to be a movement about care for ones neighbor gave rise to a figure like Donald Trump.
