b'This week\\u2019s show is a\\xa0Deconversion Anonymous\\xa0episode. My guest this week is\\xa0Sarah. Sarah says she may have one of the \\u201clongest deconstruction stories. She grew up in a fundamentalist Baptist church in an area where there were not that many Baptist churches. So she felt different from an early age. She was constantly attempting to live in the \\u201cwill of God\\u201d but struggled to determine what that was. She knew from an early age that she was a doubter which equates to \\u201cbackslider.\\u201d Sarah was never comfortable with the limited roles allowed for women in the Church. Fortunately, her mother encouraged her to do and become whatever she wanted. Sarah was smart and interested in science. Studying science and biology did not fit the Young Earth Creationism she was taught at church. Sarah and her husband were the one couple who were egalitarian while the young married couples group were all complementarian. Sarah was vocal about her thoughts on complemntarianism. Sarah spent a long time outside the United States. When she returned to the United States she was shocked by the Christian Nationalism she heard from the pulpit. Rachael Held Evens, Mike McHargue and David Hayward helped Sarah through her deconstruction. Today post-deconstruction she is interested in finding her \\u201cdeconstructing friends\\u201d in real life. Interact Full show notes
