Megan Dietrick (meganraecoaching.com) is a Methodist worship director as well as a coach who helps people recover from religious-based trauma and cultures of fear. In this episode, which hits on a number of ideas previously discussed in this podcast (purity culture, faith deconstruction/reconstruction, a critique of evangelical Christianity), Megan brings a unique, hope-filled voice while not failing to name with unflinching honesty many of the failings of cultures that become guided by fear rather than love. What emerges in the conversation is hope for pursuing lives that transcend fear and trauma, and for building communities centered in hope and resilience.
