Alice Greczyn: Wayward - Spiritual Warfare & Sexual Purity

Published: Feb. 1, 2021, midnight

b'My returning guest this week is Alice Greczyn. Alice has written a new memoir called Wayward: Spiritual Warfare & Sexual Purity. In it, Alice tells the harrowing story of growing up in an Evangelical family that attempted to live by faith. They moved from place to place believing the \\u201cLord would provide.\\u201d Alice describes it as being \\u201chomeless.\\u201d Alice came of age under the oppressive sexual and purity mores of the \\u201cKiss Dating Goodbye\\u201d era. She tells the story of being shamed while on a mission trip to India for being \\u201cflirty.\\u201d As an adult in her 20s, in a desperate but final act of faith, Alice tests God. God fails. And Alice begins the difficult process of letting go of faith. This is a dark time of panic attacks, depression, and self-harm. With the help of secular therapy and the discovery of the term, Religious Trauma Syndrome, Alice began her recovery process. She studied the science of faith, neurotheology, and began to understand herself and those around her who still believed. In this new freedom, she rebuilt her life reclaiming her autonomy and discovering what real love feels like. On top of being an author, Alice is an advocate for those questioning their faith. Her organization, Dare to Doubt, is a resource for those who are no longer satisfied with their faith tradition\\u2019s explanations and demands.
