Sinopsis

A former megachurch pastor leaves religion behind to rid himself of the exclusivity created by its dogmas in order to open himself up to learn from the lives, stories, and experiences of everyone else. To prove we are more alike than we think and we can all get along no matter what we believe. Topics range via guest's experiences growing up in religious homes, where Christianity, Islam, Buddhism, Secularism, Judaism, Hinduism, Tao, Heathenism, Wicca and all forms of dogmas and ideologies programmed into the mind of a child. What happens when that child becomes an adult? What good things do they hold onto? What things do they lose? Where are they now, and in what ways are they finding the peace that we all desire, with or apart from the religions they were raised with? Losing Our Religion is a wild ride with a community of diverse humans each seeking their desired life away from dogma and exclusivity.

    Hi, I'm Zac Gandara. The host of Losing Our Religion. I am a former evangelical mega-church pastor. Although I was baptized catholic as an infant, then as a protestant in elementary school, then as a pentecostal in High School. Now? I'm trying to heal after my traumatic exvangelical exit from institutional religion. How have I healed since my exit from religion in 2011? Very irregularly. If you keep listening to this podcast, you're going to hear my story of healing and transformation, as well as hundreds of other humans. I urge you to listen with empathy because you're never going to agree with everything I say, or with the life choices, which I and others have made for ourselves. But I can say that each guest and I are all happier, healthier, and more compassionate humans because of our transformations out of religion. If you keep listening, you'll find out that this isn't a podcast against religion at all. By having a podcast called "Losing Our Religion," I'm not saying I hate religion. I'm saying I'm not
