There's a lot of memoirs, social media comments, and dialogue about leaving the evangelical church. However, as our guest, Sarah McCammon (@sarahmccammon_journalist) says, "you can't really understand the leaving without understanding loving and living the evangelical church."

Sarah is the author of the new book The Exvangelicals. She talks with us about:

The history of Christianity and politics
What religion may offer
The Bill Clinton Era and Purity Culture
Evangelical Relationships
Performing Gender
Loving and Living (and Leaving) the Evangelical Church
Grief
Connection and Trauma Bonding
Healing Through Storytelling
