How Leaving Evangelicalism Has Changed Our Sense of Compassion

How Leaving Evangelicalism Has Changed Our Sense of Compassion

Many things in our lives have changed since leaving evangelical Christianity. Among those is how we express compassion to our fellow human beings. Where the evangelical mindset uses compassion as a means to evangelize the faith, the Freevangelic mindset is to simply be kind for the sake of being kind and compassionate.  If you want to read the blog that kicked off our Freevangelic movement, check out https://freevangelic.com.

A Freevangelic Halloween

Growing up in the Southern Baptist church, Rebeca never got to experience Halloween like other kids. Since becoming Freevangelic, she's learned the ancient origins of Halloween and just how much fun it can be.  Read more about the ancient traditions surrounding Samhain at: https://www.history.com/topics/holidays/samhain Want to know the origin of the Jack-o'-Lantern?

Politics

Questions have come up about how different aspects of life, thought, and values change after you free yourself from evangelical dogma. It's taken a while for some of these changes to shake out. Given that we are deep into the quadrennial silly season, it seemed like a good time to talk about how being a Freevangelic has changed how we look at politics, how we make decisions on how to vote, and how the entire process has changed, in some ways drastically.

Bravery

Rebeca and Charlie are back after a three-year hiatus from the Freevangelic Podcast! Welcome back everyone! Something that keeps coming up in discussions with people in this new life is their seeming fascination with what they say was our bravery in leaving evangelical Christianity and being so public about it. What would have required more energy - leaving out loud or staying in and living a lie? If you have questions, topics you'd like to hear us discuss, or need resources to help you as you follow a similar path, you can reach out at info@justonec.com.  You can find Rebeca on TikTok at @rebeca_seitz and our website (which desperately needs updating - any volunteers?) at https://freevangelic.com.

The Remnant Part 2

Continuing the theme of investigating what remains after leaving evangelical Christianity, The Freevangelics explore what was The Way that Jesus preached and how his exhortation in the Gospel of John about being The Way to The Father has, perhaps, been mistranslated, misunderstood, and manipulated by Christians for thousands of years.
