We were raised in the church, and now it's our turn to parent our kids and figure out how to pass on a healthy spiritual journey to them. We don't really know how to do it, but we know we don't want to do it in ways that we were raised on in the church.

Does that sound familiar? Bekah McNeel wrote Bringing Up Kids When the Church Lets You Down from exactly that perspective. In this episode, we chat with Bekah about her experiences growing up in the church, working in the church, being let down by the church, and then trying to figure out how she's going to raise her kids in the church. So many exvangelical parents have that same experience, trying to navigate faith and spirituality with our kids in a way that isn't manipulative, that offers choices, and that doesn't have to be deconstructed as they age. The people and resources mentioned in the conversation are:

Mothers of Massive Resistance: White Women and the Politics of White Supremacy - Elizabeth Gillespie McRae
Linda Kay Klein (author of Pure: Inside the Evangelical Movement that Shamed a Generation of Young Women and How I Broke Free)
Martin Brokenleg
The Spiritual Child: The New Science on Parenting for Health and Lifelong Thriving - Lisa Miller

In this episode, we tasted the exquisite Nashville Barrel Company's 8 Year Rye. The tasting is at 3:57. To skip to the main segment, go to 7:26.
