Reflections from a Former Evangelical: Poems Reminiscent of My 2019 Worldview*

Are you a former evangelical? Or are you curious to learn more about what a faith deconstruction journey can look like? Do you feel alone and want to connect with writing that reflects your theological shifts? Nicki Pappas spent three decades in white evangelical churches. In 2017, Nicki began her lifelong antiracism journey. From there, she continued exchanging core beliefs about gender, sexuality, spirituality, and so much more. In this anthology of free verse poetry, a former evangelical know-it-all reflects on who she was, who she is, and who she is becoming. She holds out hope to spiritual misfits who are broadening the narratives they were taught within white evangelicalism. She’s also putting an asterisk on her beliefs *subject to change as I do.
