A podcast by a Catholic who was raised around Evangelicals, spent four years in an Evangelical church, deconstructed and went back to Catholicism. This is not a slander piece nor do I intend it to be. The viewpoints in this are my own and are protected
I did not want to do this installment but after the shooting in Udvale, Texas, I had to. I discuss my thoughts on Evangelicals supporting the GOP who are very much against abortion but okay with guns and why I think saying that the US is a Christian nation and politicians like Donald Trump are going to bring God back to the US is BS.
This is the podcast where I talk about the things Evangelicals say and why they should STFU already!
I'm starting Season 3 by defining what is an Evangelical. It may shock you.
So what is "Sin Watching?" It's simply a form of mind control. I break down what is sin watching, how it's used, and why the hell people need to calm the hell down about dreamcatchers!
When does working/volunteering for a church lead to toxicity? I break down the ways one can experience service abuse.
What is your destiny? I examine when Evangelicals use it to abuse you.
On this Shrove Tuesday/Fat Tuesday, I will look at what is Lent and Ash Wednesday and why don't Evangelicals celebrate it or celebrate it differently.
How can you tell if an Evangelical Church is trying to control you and your money? Look no further than this podcast. Thanks to Reimagining Recovery, I have the ways that one can tell if their church is all about the Benjamins.
What happens when you take theology and act like it's going to make you go to hell if you're not good enough. In this episode I look at fear driven theology.
In the 90s, religious groups created a thing called purity culture. This practice still continues today. In this podcast, I examine it, dissect it, and say once and for all where it is wrong.
Thanks to Reimagining Recovery & Your Favorite Heretics for this season's theme. Today we examine mental health abuse. Starting this Season! Diaries Of An Exvangelical will be on YouTube weekly.
TRAILER! Season two is going to be about spiritual abuse and the Evangelical church. This is inspired by the Portland based Reimagining Recovery and a post they made on Facebook about church trauma.
Season 1 finale! If there's one thing that Evangelicals hate the most, it's Pokemon. In this installment, I not only say that this is a trend with Evangelicals hating something so popular but I also debunk a lot of myths and lies that Evangelicals tell you about Pokemon and finally confirm that once again, Evangelicals have it wrong: Pokemon is just a game!
This is my reasons why holiday pageants in Evangelicals churches are something that needs to be done away with. It's mostly because of the "talking down" mentality of them.
In light of things involving criminal activity and the Duggars, I go on a rant about the Duggars! Why do Evangelicals like these people?!
A part of the holiday special episodes. Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays are used interchangeably and it seems while Catholics don't like it too much, Evangelicals are the ones to freak out the most. This is one Catholic woman who spent four years as an Evangelical who WON'T complain if a sales clerk uses "Happy Holidays" and this is why.
My rant on the Duggars and why I think saying they are wholesome whilst judging Sex and the City is wrong.
A HOLIDAY BONUS! It's a rant about the Starbucks coffee cups and why Evangelicals have the complaints wrong.
Let me tell you all a story about when I was in an Evangelical church and a woman bitched about Christmas parade floats because she hated the pop culture elements in them. I realized this is a common thing with Evangelicals and here is what I was able to find out on why.
This is where I explain why popular Evangelical forms of worship music and radio are problematic...or at least attempt to.
I recorded this one after seeing a thing on Twitter about how this year is the 13th anniversary of the first Twilight film. In this installment, I examine why Evangelicals are not fans of Harry Potter, Twilight, and pretty much secular cinema in general. PS. I actually like Robert Pattinson and my favorite movie he did was The Lighthouse. Warning: This may contain shocking material. I do make a refrence to the scene in The Lighthouse everyone remembers involving Robert Pattinson in a toolshed.
In this installment, I will examine why the God's Not Dead franchise is the Evangelical version of propaganda using the arguments I learned in a theories of persuasion class in college and comparisons to WWII propaganda films.

This is a story of a Catholic girl who spent four years as an Evangelical only to leave and go back to Catholicism. In this first episode, I tell how this happened and the problems I faced. It will also serve as a trailer of sorts for what is to come of this podcast. Warning: This contains some profanity. There is nothing pornographic but it does contain profanity.
