    A quick heads-up before you hit play: God Has Not Given As A Podcast is never coming back, but the work is evolving. Welcome to a special broadcast introducing better gods—an offensive Christian podcast hosted by Janice Lagata where she doesn’t talk to people she doesn’t like. Consider this episode a masterclass in friendly fire, a clearing of the decks, and the official introduction to the next phase of Janice's public ministry. If you’ve been following Janice's journey through the deconstruction space, you know she left her social media platform last year. In this premiere episode of her new venture, she explains exactly why she left, what she learned from the outside looking in, and why she is completely done investing hope in white male proxies or centering aggrieved white women who can't hold nuance or see Black women as actual people with agency. From the dehumanizing "White Shirt" tier systems of her past Christian employers to the shallow, capitalistic numbers game of the modern exvangelical movement, Janice holds nothing back. What You'll Hear in This Episode: The Origin Story: Why this episode drops on May 18th—the birthday of Janice's late cat, David. The Bubble Problem: Disillusionment in the exvangelical space and the rise of the mediocre white "midman". Imagined Communities: The deep sociological difference between a country and a nation. The Announcement: A breakdown of the new bi-weekly better gods schedule, the Study To Be Quiet Hour, and the upcoming BYO Elder Book Club. Where to Find the New Space:The old email address isn't going anywhere. If you want to submit to be on the new show for Tell Me About Your God, apply for Debate Practice, or get information on the Study To Be Quiet creative hours, reach out directly. 📬 Get in Touch: godhasnotgiven@gmail.com 🎧 Subscribe to the new feed: Search for better gods on your favorite podcast platform to catch every new episode dropping bi-weekly starting the week of Juneteenth.
