Podcast appearances and mentions of Jim Bakker

The P Town Bar in Pittsburgh was raided early this month for “compliance issues.” This should worry us all as kitted up police stormed the performance of nightlife icon Amanda Lepore for no apparent reason other than a nuisance complaint. Then, MAGA worshipping Senator Mike Lee of Utah, is trying once again to ban pornography in the USA. Finally, our favorite 80's televangelist and convicted felon, Jim Bakker, shows up looking for a million dollars or he will be on the street. We all fondly remember his wife, Tammy Faye, who died in 2007.

Today Pastor Jim and the panel discuss comments by Mark Levin, an American broadcast news analyst, columnist, lawyer, political commentator, radio personality, and writer. He is the host of syndicated radio show The Mark Levin Show, as well as Life, Liberty & Levin on Fox News. The discussion centers around the upcoming nuclear capability of Iran and the mindset, history and beliefs of the Islamist Terrorist Movement

Jim Bakker begs for $1M, NJ town wants to bulldoze church, Christian crowdfunding service defends racist woman's campaign, Texas give Christians an entire month, televangelist given 'gold-plated' AR-15, Southern Baptists continue to hemorrhage members, and the Catholics have a new pope.

Of course Republicans lied about not cutting Medicaid. A witness in the Diddy trial is missing. Newark Airport is a cluster "f." Fox News admitted Shitler took an "L" in the trade war with China. MAGAT Loomer dissed Trump's corrupt deal with Qatar for the big tacky plane. Melania rarely visits The White House. Podcaster Hasan Piker was illegally detained at the airport and interrogated by fascist border agents. Cokey Smurf, AKA Don Jr., has made bank off his Dad's presidency. The poorest states in the union are the most unhealthy. Anti-trans actor John Cleese suggested stringing up The Donald. Infamously crooked televangelist Jim Bakker continues to shamelessly beg for cash.

The Rise of AI's global control systems The Vcast warns of the three strategies for a consolidated AI's global / centralized takeover. First, MasterCard is launching an AI Agent that will make your purchases in order to fit your needs, get deals and stop fraud. Could this Ai Pay Assistant technology be used with a “carbon / social credit tracker” or the “Mark of the Beast” enforcement? How will this technology fit universal basic income and CBDC? Open AI's / Stargate has a strategy of building localized content with Stargate data centers around the world. Is this centralized Ai control masked as culturalized customization? Will this be the Ai Egov global adoption? Last, Trump's tariffs (based on a lie), is leveraging tariff hikes for Starlink's global distribution. Starlink is vital for the global surveillance state via the “Internet of Bodies.” The VCAST also mentions AI translating animal noises, Freemasons (opinion) enforcing Noahide laws, and televangelist Jim Bakker's financial struggles asking for $1M dollars. VCAST ends with Scripture

Segment 1: • A major story is unfolding in evangelical circles—but Todd isn't covering it yet. • Sharing speculation without facts equals gossip or slander. • Sometimes silence is the most biblical response if you can't be helpful. Segment 2: • Jim Bakker's back—asking for $1,000 to avoid homelessness. • 2 Peter 2 exposes these greedy false teachers who exploit vulnerable people. • While Judas scorned Mary's generosity, Jesus praised it—true worship always costs something. Segment 3: • Self-diagnosed "neurodivergence" is exploding—especially in the UK. • Autism diagnoses have jumped 780% in recent years. • Are we pathologizing normal behavior—or missing real issues? Segment 4: • New Pope Leo XIV: conservative on doctrine, progressive on climate. • Joy Behar and The View are confused (and worried) about the mix. • False leaders who mislead others? Scripture says they are anathema—cursed. – Preorder the new book, Lies My Therapist Told Me, by Fortis Institute Fellow Dr. Greg Gifford now! https://www.harpercollins.com/pages/liesmytherapisttoldme – Thanks for listening!

  Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid – May 7, 2025 On this edition of Head-ON with Roxanne Kincaid, Roxanne delivers three fierce hours of truth-telling, political critique, and sharp-tongued humor from a proudly liberal, Appalachian transbilly perspective. Broadcasting live amid a personal health scare and ongoing fundraising efforts, she pulls no punches while skewering what she repeatedly calls the “Nitwit Nero,” “Orange Julius Geezer,” and MAGAT administration. Main topics include: Authoritarianism & Abuse of Power: Roxanne tears into the administration's deportation plans to countries like Libya and Rwanda, calling them a “slave trade” enabled by Pentagon funds and blatant human rights violations. She highlights federal judges pushing back against misuse of the Alien Enemies Act, particularly rulings from Judges Sweeney, Rodriguez, and Murphy. Religious Grift & Hypocrisy: With fire aimed at “Christian grifters” like Jim Bakker, Roxanne slams the prosperity gospel as a con. Bakker's demand for $1,000 donations, while his ministry faces foreclosure, exemplifies the cynical monetization of faith. Religious bigotry and antisemitism, especially targeting Jewish politicians like Gov. JB Pritzker, are called out directly. Sanctuary Cities & Counter-Trolling: The administration's war on sanctuary cities gets spotlighted during a visit by “Secretary HotMama” to Illinois, met with brilliant shade from Pritzker's team. The trolling press release earns Roxanne's praise for mocking cosplay law enforcement antics and dodgy constitutional respect. Attacks on LGBTQ+ Health: The MAGAT administration's cancellation of $800M+ in LGBTQ+ health research—including HIV prevention—is called a cruel erasure of queer communities from public health priorities. SNAP Restrictions in Louisiana: Gov. Jeff Landry's ban on buying candy or soda with food stamps, part of his “Make America Healthy Again” campaign, is framed as a thinly veiled assault on the poor, diabetics, and public dignity. World Cup Chaos Ahead: With mega-events looming, Roxanne calls out the US's crumbling infrastructure and visa backlogs, warning that MAGAT mismanagement could embarrass the nation on the world stage. Spying on Allies: A Wall Street Journal exposé alleging US intel is spying on Greenland and Denmark stirs outrage. Denmark's Foreign Minister calls it a betrayal; Roxanne sees it as more MAGAT overreach in pursuit of imperial fantasies. Media & Democratic Infighting: Roxanne roasts millionaire pundits and centrist Dems who bash Biden while ignoring MAGAT extremism. In her view, limousine liberals and profit-hungry networks are fueling division. Judicial Win in NC: There's a glimmer of hope as right-wing Judge Jefferson Griffin drops a bid to toss overseas ballots, clearing the way for Justice Allison Riggs' certified victory. Roxanne hails it as democracy fighting back. Additional highlights: Roxanne prepares for a CT scan in Durham and may launch a GoFundMe. The show faces a $968 fundraising gap and depends on listener support. A racist woman in Minnesota raises money on GiveSendGo—proof, Roxanne says, that hate still sells in MAGAT America. Pritzker signs an executive order protecting autism-related data. A 1972 Soviet satellite is falling back to Earth (location unknown). The Trump admin allegedly dismantled a key CDC infection control committee. Rumors swirl about MAGAT Surgeon General pick Casey Mean, a “wellness influencer.” Tone: Blunt, biting, and unfiltered, with moments of gallows humor and sharp satire. Roxanne blends grassroots outrage with deep concern for democracy, human rights, and community. Her message: resist the fascism, expose the grifters, support the truth.

This week on Toilet Radio: We sat down to watch a little-known 2004 documentary on Christian heavy metal, Why Should The Devil Have All The Good Music. We went in blind and we were pleasantly surprised by the scope of voices, hard-hitting questions, and nuanced responses offered in this documentary. In addition to Zao, Demon Hunter, and other well known Christian bands, you hear from Pansy Division, Steve Albini, and a host of lapsed as well as true believers. We even hear from son of disgraced televangelist Jim Bakker. Hot damn! Can't stress it enough: this movie is actually good and actually worth your time if you have any interest in 2000s evangelical youth culture, the pairing of Christianity and right wing politics, and the business of Christian music. Folks, it's a good one. Want to watch the documentary? It's free on YouTube. Music featured on this show: Skaphos – Abyssal Tower Want more Toilet Radio?

Say his name five times in a mirror, and Candyman, a vengeful spirit born from love, betrayal, and unspeakable violence, will appear to continue his blood-soaked legend across generations.Darkness Syndicate members get the ad-free version. https://weirddarkness.com/syndicateInfo on the next LIVE SCREAM event. https://weirddarkness.com/LiveScreamInfo on the next WEIRDO WATCH PARTY event. https://weirddarkness.com/TVIN THIS EPISODE: If you look in a mirror and say his name five times, he will appear behind you, complete with a hook for a hand – covered in blood because his hand has been cut off. Isn't that romantic? No? Well, Clive Barker's 1992 horror cult classic “Candyman” actually began as a real-life love story. So how did it turn so gruesome and terrifying? (The Nightmarish Love Story Behind Horror's Candyman) *** The Enfield Poltergeist has become infamous thanks to Ed and Lorraine Warren and “The Conjuring” films. That took place in a house in Brimsdown, Enfield, London England. But on the other side of the pond there is an Enfield, Illinois. Not as well known as the one in England of course, but they still have a horror in their past. One that took place four years before the Enfield incident in London… about a terrifying creature that locals who were alive at the time still get goosebumps talking about. (The Horror of the Enfield, Illinois Monster) *** Complex family dynamics and an infatuated businessman ended in a murder that was covered up and remained hidden for three decades, buried in the grounds of the house at 10324 Canyon Road. (A Dark Secret Leads To a Death On Canyon Road) *** One girl decided to go by the name of Lila, because her true name was Delilah but she didn't want to be associated with that harlot in the Bible. The stories behind how people get nicknames can often be fascinating. So how do you supposed Margaret Dickson got tagged with the nickname of “Half Hangit Maggie”? (Half Hangit Maggie) *** The search for intelligent life in the universe has been a goal for decades, with everyone from NASA to SETI to backyard Ufologists looking to the skies, listening to various radio waves, hoping to catch just a glimpse, at least a hint of what we hope to find. But could it be that we're looking in the wrong place? Perhaps the extraterrestrial intelligence, the more advanced life we seek to make contact with, is not out there somewhere… but it is here somewhere… already on Earth? (There Might Be Intelligent Life On Earth After All) *** Too often we are let down by those whom we look up to – and that goes doubly so for those in religious authority. How many well-known religious figures have toppled over after being exalted on high by the followers they so skillfully misled? Jim Bakker, Robert Tilton, Ted Haggard, Jimmy Swaggart… but none compare to Major Thomas Weir – a strict Presbyterian known for his powerful prayers, earning him a reputation for being one of the most saintly men of his time. But then he made a confession so outlandish, so ghastly and profane, they executed him.

Today's video is about the cult I joined in my mid 20's, MorningStar Ministries, and it's founder Rick Joyner. In this video I go over the origins of MorningStar and then focus on Rick Joyner's roll in covering up repeatedly for predators and then "restoring" them back to ministry and giving dangerous men a platform. We talk about Jim Bakker, Todd Bentley, Mike Bickle, Erickson Lee, Chris Reed, and the latest lawsuits against Rick and MorningStar.

In the 1970s, Heritage USA wasn't just a theme park, it was a "Christian Disneyland" that had the faithful flocking to its divine water slides, righteous rides, and—wait for it—bible study with a side of funnel cake.

We'll have details. And, Christian philanthropist Bill Hwang was sentenced for a $10 billion fraud. We'll take a look. Plus, another Christian college is on the ropes. Saint Augustine's University in North Carolina slashes its workforce by 50% in its fight to retain accreditation. But first, a week after suffering a dangerous health incident during a Sunday morning church service, Bishop T.D. Jakes updated his congregation via live video. “Many of you don't realize that you're looking at a miracle,” Bishop T.D. Jakes said in a live video message to the congregation on Sunday (Dec. 1). “I faced a life-threatening calamity, was rushed to the ICU unit. I had emergency surgery. Survived this surgery” He said.  The producer for today's program is Jeff McIntosh. We get database and other technical support from Stephen DuBarry, Rod Pitzer, and Casey Sudduth.

Jim and Tammy Faye Bakker were pioneers of the Word of Faith/Prosperity Gospel movement in the 70's and 80's. They were televangelists who started their own broadcast network PTL (Praise The Lord) and even created a theme park and water park called Heritage USA. This week's guest is my step uncle - Alan Gifford who worked at PTL in Heritage USA and who's father was a personal security guard for Jim Bakker. He shares some funny, personal stories about his time working for the Bakkers and growing up in the Word Of Faith belief.    Hi, I'm Mackenzie.

April Ajoy wouldn't have called herself a Christian Nationalist when she performed her original song “America Say Jesus” on the Jim Bakker show, or when she participated in Jesus Marches across America, or when she posted cringe-worthy videos on YouTube to campaign for Mitt Romney. April just considered herself a good Christian: faithful, Republican, and determined to make America a Christian nation once again. But as her view of the world widened, Ajoy began to see cracks in her steadfast beliefs and recognized the ways her conservative politics and religion were intertwined in her mind. Join Paul and Ashley as they talk with April Ajoy, content creator and podcast host, exploring how aspects of evangelical culture such as product boycotts, Satanic panic, and end-times theology have all been exploited to advance the Christian Nationalist narrative.

This Quoircast podcast episode is brought to you by Finding Jesus by Herb Montgomery. Published by Quoir and available nowIn this episode we chat with Jay BakkerJay Bakker is an American pastor, author, and speaker. He is the son of televangelists Jim Bakker and Tammy Faye Messner. During his young adult years, Bakker became disillusioned with mainstream Christianity, becoming particularly critical of Christian fundamentalism and the Christian right. He later adopted a much more liberal form of Christianity and became a co-founder of Revolution Church, which was created in 1994 in Phoenix, Arizona. Bakker then preached at Revolution's Atlanta location before pastoring the New York City branch of Revolution Church, which held services at the bar and venue Pete's Candy Store, in the Williamsburg section of Brooklyn until Bakker relocated to Minneapolis in 2013 and began pastoring another iteration of Revolution Church there. Much of Bakker's story was retold in a documentary on Sundance Channel called One Punk Under God: The Prodigal Son of Jim and Tammy Faye. His story has also been chronicled in Time Magazine.You can follow Jay on:Facebook     Instagram  You can find all things Revolution Church related on their websiteYou can purchase Jay Bakkers books on Amazon.comYou can connect with This Is Not Church on:Facebook     Instagram      TikTok     YouTubeAlso check out our Biolink for all things This Is Not Church relatedPlease like and follow our Quoircast Partners:Heretic Happy Hour     Messy Spirituality     Apostates Anonymous    Second Cup with Keith     The Church Needs TherapyIdeas Digest      Snarky Faith Podcast     Wild Olive     Deadly Faith     Spirituality Brew Pub     Faith For The Rest Of UsJonathan_Foster     Sacred Thoughts     Holy Heretics     Reframing Our Stories     Bros Bibles & Beer      Liminal LivingLove Covered Life     The Social Jesus Project     I Was A Teenage FundamentalistEach episode of This Is Not Church Podcast is expertly engineered by our producer The Podcast Doctor Eric Howell.

In the 1980s, televangelist Jim Bakker had grown an impressive broadcasting empire along with his wife, Tammy Faye. Their organization, PTL, built a Christian-theme park on the border between North and South Carolina and the two lived a lavish lifestyle. But behind the scenes, the Bakkers were struggling with marital issues, hoping that material possessions would fill the empty places still in their hearts. Then, a sex scandal opened the doors for the government to begin examining the inner workings of the PTL's finances.

When investigative reporter Charles E. Shepard began covering televangelist Jim Bakker and his ministry, Praise the Lord, he knew it could be the biggest story his paper was following. Throughout the 1980s, he documented Bakker's extraordinary wealth, financial crimes, and sexual assault of a former PTL secretary named Jessica Hahn. Shepard's efforts helped win his paper a Pulitzer Prize for meritorious public service. Today, he joins Lindsay to talk about his book, Forgiven: The Rise and Fall of Jim Bakker and the PTL Ministry, and the discoveries that helped bring Bakker and his ministry down.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Jim Bakker, and his wife, Tammy Faye, revolutionized tele-evangelism in the 1970s and 1980s. Their PTL Club, was, at it's height, pulling in millions a WEEK in donations to support their cause. But their cause was a lie. Jim was not who he claimed to be, and financial and sexual improprieties would send him to prison... before he got out and started running his scam all over again. Watch the Suck on YouTube: https://youtu.be/VhHZaIOtbm8Merch and more: www.badmagicproductions.com Timesuck Discord! https://discord.gg/tqzH89vWant to join the Cult of the Curious Private Facebook Group?

The return of Jay Bakker, punk-rock pastor of Revolution Church, author, speaker, and son of famed televangelists Jim Bakker and Tammy Faye (Bakker) Messner. Jay blasts open the idea of a right/wrong side of the partisan divide, arguing for a radical and very literal acceptance of "Love your Enemy." It's an energetic adventure through the Book of Galatians, and the work of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, John Hume, Gahndi, Paul Tillich, and other thinkers and philosophers as we discuss how those on the right AND the left turn their beliefs into law for the others to follow, instead of trusting Grace and finding common ground. A fantastic and much-needed talk for our times!

To hear the entirety of "Cork Board Church of the Paranoiacost" Sermons 2.A & 2.B, subscribe to the PPM Patreon: patreon.com/ParaPowerMapping “When my steps were washed with butter, and the rock poured me out rivers of oil!” —JOB 29:6 Brothers, sisters, nonbinary siblings... Welcome back to the Cork Board Church of the Paranoaicost. We resume our series of anti-Prosperity Gospel, anti-Z*onist sermons today, this time using scriptural commentary on the Book of Job as a launchpad for resuming our investigation into the tragic, deep event we have dubbed the Lakewood False Flag. Over Sermons 2.A & 2.B, we zero in on a heretofore unrecognized angle for decrypting the shooting at Joel Osteen's refurbished auditorium—namely the influence that the Houston oil industry & Wildcat Christianity have exerted on the Osteen dynasty, and the distinct possibility that Houston evangelical wildcatters who use scripture in this bibliomantic fashion to try & divine fossil fuels in the Holy Land may serve as an integral link b/w the Osteen's & the Z***ist political elite. In this episode, we begin w/ our exegesis of the Book of Job, unpacking its anti-Prosperity Gospel themes of theodicy and laying out the pervasive mining, mineral, & oil (yes, oil) language that litters its pages. The Book of Job as cyclical, boom bust cycle. We talk the downfalls of televangelists Jim Bakker, Jimmy Swaggart, & televangelist spawn Jerry Falwell, Jr thru cuckolding & prostitution scandals. We take a stab at how Joel & John Osteen might try to spin the Book of Job (I've since confirmed, and I was right on the money). We touch on Jerry Falwell's tight relationship w/ Menachem Begin. We lay out some of the central themes of this two parter, including sentient oil & the organizing principle of the coming inquiry, namely the wonderment—Is the history of the Houston oil industry simply the economic & place-based backdrop to the Lakewood False Flag... Or is it possible that Texan oil concerns & various multinat'l oil production companies & Houston based exploration outfits could have had more of a direct hand in the tragic event, or at the least benefited in some way? We introduce a Houston oilman dynasty, the scion of which linked John Osteen up w/ Demos Shakarian & the Full Gospel Businessmen's Fellowship Int'l... And we began to assemble some primary & secondary evidence about said scion Andy SoRelle's scripturally-inspired prospecting in the Promised Land. From there, we break down further evidence regarding the susness of purported Lakewood "shooter" Genesse Moreno's background, including new revelations: the fact her MIL Rabbi claims she was born in Qatar & was a practicing Muslim at the time of her marriage (which is highly convenient for the Z**nist, "anti-terrorist" narratives that this event is being used to reinforce); how this doesn't seem to gel w/ her membership at Lakewood Church, which we finally confirm in this part; her immigration from El Salvador to the US; her arrest history; affidavits from the divorce & custody disputes b/w her & her pedophile husband (including accusations of abuse from both sides); her pathological use of pseudonyms, fake names, & forging of documents (which could simply be proof she was trying to avoid deportation or could hint at something more... along espionage or organized crime lines); the fact that she was apparently involuntarily hospitalized FOUR TIMES under a fake name, per her MIL (which could be evidence that she was programmed); her history of substance abuse, & much more... All the while, illustrating how Genesse seems to have never received a fair shake in life, how her life was a string of tragedies, tumbling down into increasingly deeper rock bottoms, & how her hardship arguably outweighs Job's momentary trial by fire, whom God ultimately granted a reprieve.

IN THIS EPISODE: If you look in a mirror and say his name five times, he will appear behind you, complete with a hook for a hand – covered in blood because his hand has been cut off. Isn't that romantic? No? Well, Clive Barker's 1992 horror cult classic “Candyman” actually began as a real-life love story. So how did it turn so gruesome and terrifying? (The Nightmarish Love Story Behind Horror's Candyman) *** The Enfield Poltergeist has become infamous thanks to Ed and Lorraine Warren and “The Conjuring” films. That took place in a house in Brimsdown, Enfield, London England. But on the other side of the pond there is an Enfield, Illinois. Not as well known as the one in England of course, but they still have a horror in their past. One that took place four years before the Enfield incident in London… about a terrifying creature that locals who were alive at the time still get goosebumps talking about. (The Horror of the Enfield, Illinois Monster) *** Complex family dynamics and an infatuated businessman ended in a murder that was covered up and remained hidden for three decades, buried in the grounds of the house at 10324 Canyon Road. (A Dark Secret Leads To a Death On Canyon Road) *** One girl decided to go by the name of Lila, because her true name was Delilah but she didn't want to be associated with that harlot in the Bible. The stories behind how people get nicknames can often be fascinating. So how do you supposed Margaret Dickson got tagged with the nickname of “Half Hangit Maggie”? (Half Hangit Maggie) *** The search for intelligent life in the universe has been a goal for decades, with everyone from NASA to SETI to backyard Ufologists looking to the skies, listening to various radio waves, hoping to catch just a glimpse, at least a hint of what we hope to find. But could it be that we're looking in the wrong place? Perhaps the extraterrestrial intelligence, the more advanced life we seek to make contact with, is not out there somewhere… but it is here somewhere… already on Earth? (There Might Be Intelligent Life On Earth After All) *** Too often we are let down by those whom we look up to – and that goes doubly so for those in religious authority. How many well-known religious figures have toppled over after being exalted on high by the followers they so skillfully misled? Jim Bakker, Robert Tilton, Ted Haggard, Jimmy Swaggart… but none compare to Major Thomas Weir – a strict Presbyterian known for his powerful prayers, earning him a reputation for being one of the most saintly men of his time. But then he made a confession so outlandish, so ghastly and profane, they executed him.

I greet you in Jesus' precious name! It is Friday morning, the 16th of February, 2024, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today. We start in 2 Peter 2:21: "For it would have been better for them not to have known the way of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy commandment delivered to them." Better to have never known the truth than to have known Jesus Christ and then to have betrayed Him and walked away from Him. Peter, the big fisherman who wrote this very letter, did it himself no less than three times. He denied the Lord and it broke him completely. Matthew 26:75: "So he went out and wept bitterly." Young man, do not do it; it's not worth it! You want to go and sow your wild oats, as they say. You want to go and have a bit of fun and then you will come back and serve the Lord. It can become very costly indeed. Yes, I agree - if we really repent, Jesus will forgive us like He did with Peter, but remember, the scar remains. That illegitimate child walking around because you decided one night to have a bit of fun and you made that girl pregnant. That prison record, you went to jail because you chose not to pay your income tax. Yes, you have served your sentence but you have a record that will stay with you.One of the saddest books I have ever read about a man named Jim Bakker. He was heading up one of the biggest Christian Channels in the world, but in a moment of weakness, he committed adultery, and it cost him severely. He eventually landed up in jail and lost his ministry, his wife and his family. Yes, he has repented, and we trust and believe that he is going on, but it comes at a tremendous price. It's really not worth it. A lady wrote me a letter just the other day, breaking my heart. In one of the main cities in our country, she said, the young men are leaving their families and going out and having affairs. They don't realise the debt that they are getting into. It will cost them everything. It's really not worth it - the pain, the hurt our selfishness causes to other people. My grandson said to me one day, "Grandad, what about all the people in the desert, the people in the jungles who never hear the Gospel? How do they get judged?" I said, "Son, they will be judged according to their works."Today, let us have a good look at our lifestyle. Let us change, start afresh like Peter, and walk away from that sin which so easily ensnares us. (Hebrews 12:1) and let us continue with our love affair with the Master who saved us from so much.Jesus bless you and goodbye.

Some of her evangelical highlights include: singing on the Jim Bakker show, working for the 700 Club and leading worship for over a decade. She now identifies as a "recovering conservative" and is navigating through her own faith deconstruction journey through a comedic lens on social media. She has been married to her partner, Beecher, for 8 years and they have two daughters together. She and Beecher also host a podcast called The Non-Binary Marriage that shares their journey of accepting Beecher's gender identity as non-binary.You can follow April on:Facebook     Twitter     Instagram     TikTok You can connect with This Is Not Church on:Facebook     Instagram      Twitter     TikTok     YouTubeAlso check out our Linktree for all things This Is Not Church relatedPlease like and follow our Quoircast Partners:Heretic Happy Hour     Messy Spirituality     Apostates Anonymous    Second Cup with Keith     The Church Needs TherapyIdeas Digest     The New Evangelicals     Snarky Faith Podcast     Wild Olive     Deadly FaithJonathan Foster     Sacred Thoughts     Holy Heretics     Reframing Our StoriesEach episode of This Is Not Church Podcast is expertly engineered by our producer The Podcast Doctor Eric Howell.
