Deconstructing Faith with a Gay Chaplain — Ditching Dogma for Divine Love

This episode is the spiritual perspective shift many of us need. 

Lauren Sierra is a gay chaplain and modern mystic offering a deeply honest conversation for anyone who has ever felt isolated, shamed, or confined by religion. 

We discuss what it actually looks like to deconstruct Christian faith as a queer woman — and rebuild something rooted in divine love instead of dogma. Lauren shares her journey through faith deconstruction, religious trauma, conversion therapy, and reclaiming her body and life after years of shrinking and self-erasure. 

In this episode, we cover: 

– The long-term impact of conversion therapy
 – The embodied effects of purity culture
 – Navigating queerness within conservative Christian spaces
 – Religious trauma and faith deconstruction
 – Chaplaincy, death, and end-of-life revelations
 – Reclaiming space in your body after years of shrinking 

If you’re questioning Christianity, navigating LGBTQ identity within faith, or unpacking religious harm, this conversation offers a grounded and expansive perspective on ditching dogma and reconnecting with divine love.
