What does it mean to be an EXvangelical? For Mattie Jo Cowsert, how did that deconstruction of her faith, the tradition that she grew up in, all come about? How have family and friends back home reacted to Mattie Jo's journey, specifically with her being an outspoken exvangelical? What's it been like to go back and examine the truth of certain pillars of today's American Evangelicalism such as the Kanakuk Kamps, now known to have employed and protected serial sexual predators? We get into so much more, too - including plenty of politics!
Mattie Jo Cowsert is an #exvangelical whose blog God, Sex & Rich People traces her journey from the Bible Belt to New York City as she deconstructs Christian fundamentalism to embrace personal and sexual freedom. Her book of the same name will be out this coming winter and her pilot based on her series premiered this year at the Omaha Film Festival.
