  • Evangelicalism *dun dun dunhhh* Pt. 1
    Sep 18 2025

    Welcome back! We filmed this episode Sept. 8th when we had the chance to actually be together in person! This is the first part in what will be a two part series on evangelicalism (dun dun dunhhh). In this episode we dive into the theology that often organizes evangelicalism and the role of the capitalist marketplace in evangelical culture. We also both share our personal stories related to being part of evangelical spaces. Got questions you want us to answer in part two? Message us on our socials.
