This episode is in honor of Rachel Held Evans who inspired much of Marla's deconstruction and decolonizing journey.

4. Evolving Faith with Tiffany Mathews
How much of your faith is your own and not just what others have told you?
We are diving into faith, God, and religion in this episode with Tiffany Matthews. Tiffany Mathews is a person who believes that stories matter and that in them we find ourselves. It was through stories exchanged in letters that my husband and I fell in love. It was through his story and heart that I came to love my first child and watching the stories of my younger two develop has been one of my greatest joys. It is through stories that I have become invested in the child welfare system and in the power of community and belonging.
Listen in as we discuss creating your own path with your faith, how your views and faith with religion evolve, and finding God on your terms.
