Deconstructing & Exvangelical 🙏
I’ll exvangelize away here 🧐
A pile of non-fiction and memoirs helpful on the personal journey of deconstruction with all feels as well as critical reflections about (evangelical) fundamentalism, high control religion, Religious Trauma Syndrome (RTS), Purity Culture, etc
Deconstruction can be such a lonely journey, so I hope you’ll feel comforted by similar experiences! You’re not alone!
