Reclaiming My Theology

Reclaiming My Theology is a podcast and community taking our theology back from ideas and systems that oppress. My name is Brandi Miller, some of you know me as @brandinico in online spaces. For over a decade, I have been exploring, unlearing, and reimagining my faith outside of systemic oppression and want to bring you along with me! Each season of the podcast will be a deep dive into a form of systemic oppression and ask how the values of oppressive ideas shape our hearts, minds, politics, and lived experiences. There are so many things to reclaim our theology from: white supremacy, patriarchy and misogyny, capitalism, homophobia, ableism and more. As we launch our first season, we will be reclaiming our theology from white supremacy. Each episode, I will talk to a guest about how the attributes of oppressive ideologies have infiltrated how we see ourselves, each other, and God. We will learn from marginalized communities who practice a different way, and seek to create a more just faith experience together.

...From Purity Culture: Men, Masculinity, and Purity Culture w/ Jonathan Walton

February 01, 2023 • Season 6 • Episode 11

In this episode, Brandi is joined by friend Jonathan Walton to talk about man, masculinity, and purity culture, specifically the ways that men are taught a theology of dominance, exploitation, emotional stuntedness and repression in the teachings of purity culture (and porn). They explore the impacts on women, non-binary and trans folks, and on men themselves.
