The Kate and Colby Show

We have moralized the experiences of feeling either UP (it’s good!) or DOWN (that’s bad). It’s seen as better to be happy, peppy, and positive; whereas if you’re feeling blue or sad or angry, we’ve turned that in to a negative. Part of what still needs deconstructing for many of us is this moralization of our emotional world. Rather than bottling or repressing our “down” feelings, may we learn to name, accept, and release them. ——— Past Episodes in this Series: Part 1: When Evangelical Leaders Tell You YOUR “Why” Part 2: Investigating Our Savior Complexes Part 3: Why We Don’t Entirely Identify with the #Deconstruction Movement Part 4: Deconstructing While Still Going to Church ——— ABOUT THE KATE & COLBY SHOW Our mission is Holistic Care for the Soul.

Lots of us have experienced a kind of Deconstruction from conservative/evangelical religion. A good portion of those folks have left the church entirely (for very good reasons). But some of us have remained in the world of church. And then a handful of us (like, well, Kate & Colby) have both stayed AND tried to LEAD churches. What is like to try and deconstruct while still attending (and leading!) church? This is a faaaaascinating conversation!! ——— Past Episodes in this Series: Part 1: When Evangelical Leaders Tell You YOUR “Why” Part 2: Investigating Our Savior Complexes Part 3: Why We Don’t Entirely Identify with the #Deconstruction Movement ——— ABOUT THE KATE & COLBY SHOW Our mission is Holistic Care for the Soul.

Transgender Soul Care (with Austen Hartke)

In part three of our series, “Quote, unQuote, Deconstruction,” we attempt to get a little more clear about why it is that we don’t always entirely resonate with or connect to the #Deconstruction movement. We totally affirm the value of such language and terms, and yet sometimes we find ourselves feeling, well, not very deconstruction-y.

Continuing our series, “Quote, unQuote, Deconstruction,” we talk about how we grew up being told a story where we were responsible for the eternal safety of our loved ones. We needed to get them to be Christians, or else they’d spend forever in hell. Now, even on the other side of such (bad) theology, we still suffer from the impact of a kind of savior complex.

More and more people don't believe in God anymore. At least, not as they've previously thought of "God." In our modern, secular age, dominated by science and technology, is there space for enchantment any longer? Or have we left all that behind? In his latest book, "Hunting Magic Eels" (https://amzn.to/3gpDIWz) Richard Becks offers a way to re-enchant our faith in the midst of this, our skeptical age. We met Richard years ago at our church camp, and instantly we knew he was one of our favs. Hope you enjoy either getting to know him for the first time, or learning more about his latest work! #progressivechristianity​​ #postevangelica​l #enchantedfaith ——— ALSO THIS EPISODE Viewer Check-in: When it comes to magic, what's your general feeling/attitude?

As an author, speaker, disability advocate, and trauma survivor, Stephanie Tait aims to do what she believes is sorely lacking in and around Christianity--connect sound theology and practice with the unashamed acceptance of struggle in the present tense. According to Stephanie, pain does not exist on a spectrum opposite of joy. Rather, pain, with the way it weaves into our lives, families, and work habits, has been the connecting point of grace and struggle that defines her career.

In this Garage Session, we discuss the phenomenon occurring right now where evangelical leaders are attempting to tell people why they’re deconstructing. Kate points out that this experience—of leaders/pastors telling us our story for us—is precisely what evangelicalism has always been about.

What do you do in a close relationship when one of you starts shifting to new/different ideas and beliefs? Maybe it’s religious beliefs, or political… but suddenly, you (or your partner) are not on the same page anymore. Scary, right? In this Garage Session, Kate and Colby share from their experience when they began moving in different directions from the agreed-upon-script they were both given (and dutifully lived out) from their evangelical heritage. Listen in as Kate shares how, no, actually she’s not just “okay” when her and Colby disagree on something. Rather, she moves through a process of discernment to figure out what the feelings are and why. It’s some real good stuff, y’all. You’re gonna love it. ——— ALSO IN THIS EPISODE -Our dog, Belle, struggles to let us get started. She’s a needy (and loud) pup. -Kate and Colby discuss how/why the feel differently about greeting each other in the morning and wishing one another goodnight. This little convo is worth the price of admission! -The hosts reflect on how humans became so tribal (good and necessary!) and how now that mentality can work against us. ——— The GARAGE Sessions are special episodes where we pick a particular subject to discuss, share stories from the heart, and laugh while we learn to love one another.
