“I just finished the October 5, 2021 episode with Beth Moore, and am searching for words to express my gratitude for this important podcast.
In 2016, I abstained in the presidential election, after voting for my entire life. Any suggestion that there was a moral high ground in that election was, to me, laughable.
In 2018, I was inappropriately grabbed from behind in worship at an SBC church by a deacon and greeter. Upon going to my ministerial staff to report this, in a mess, I might add, I was told that this was not who that man was, and that he would never do something like this. I quietly left that church after being a member in good standing for 27 years. The deacon in question remains, and still greets, to the best of my knowledge. Before that, my previous church membership had lasted 30 years, in good standing. I am not now, nor do I ever see myself as being a church member, again. I still trust Jesus, and yes, Beth, his presence got me through. He is my lifeline.
In August of 2020, my divorce from my husband of 42 years was final. He quickly remarried, and I am still honoring our marriage. He was a deacon, (although inactive, and not attending) at the same church in which I was grabbed. I can’t articulate the grief and struggle I experienced in all of this, and still do, at times. And yet, I’m grateful for the truth, and so much more. My life verse is John 8:32.
I was horrified at Beth’s treatment in the SBC post 2016. The “go home” remark shocked me to the core. I have a highlight on my Instagram account expressing my position on that. One of my closest female friends (30 years) probably disagrees with that position. We are still friends, thankfully, but this simply highlights the divide we now attempt to make sense of.
I had no idea Russell had also left the SBC, but a friend recommended this podcast, and I can’t thank her enough. I applied this interview in all sorts of directions to my experience. I applaud the courage and integrity of both Beth and Russell, in taking their stands.
I’m sharing, and subscribing. Kindest regards, and best wishes.”

“Excellent conversation and thanks Kristin for framing the evolving definition of evangelicals … unfortunately it is how society, news, and politics have re-defined that “tribe” with which I once self identified. Now, I almost violently distance myself, electing to be known as “mere Christian”...”Read full review »
