Today’s episode is with three women who have deconstructed their faith and beliefs, are on a continued journey to become anti-racist, and they use their voice to advocate for marginalized and oppressed communities. I asked them to come on my podcast because I wanted to hear about their journey, which included a lot of loss, grief, trauma, and healing. We also discuss:  Who or what influenced their deconstructing faith journey What they lost and gained along the way  Questions they have about God today  Marla Taviano says, ” I read and write for a living (and a life). Mom to 4 freaking awesome kids. Passionate about books and anti-racism and rainbows and poems (and a hundred other things.” Connect with Marla via IG  Follow Marla’s White Girl Learning Page Purchase Marla’s book on Amazon Purchase The Hole In Our Gospel Becka Eppley is a writer, speaker, and co-host of the Permission to BE podcast. She has a passion for giving voice to those who are searching for belonging, community, and hope. Becka is daily learning what it means to be an advocate for intentional and radical community, LGBTQIA2S+ rights, women in leadership, and racial justice. One of many things that Becka has discovered on her journey is that when we tie our beliefs to absolutes we live in constant fear of letting go. Finding permission to be who we were created to be often means letting go of those absolutes.

After living in China for five years, Jen returned to the US with her family and created a community conversation project aimed at bringing people together around difficult topics called, “Food For Thought Dinner Parties.” In 2012, after the killing of Trayvon Martin, she began digging deeper into the topic of race in the US, thus starting her journey into anti-racism. On this journey, Jen discovered her love for podcasting and has started several podcasts, including her current project Story Power Podcast. Jen believes in the power of story to change the world and finds immense purpose and joy in the collective movement toward co-liberation.
