well, hey there.

 

HI! I’M ERIN!

I write + podcast about working out your faith, but in a very unserious way. I author the popular Substack newsletter, The Swipe Up, where we’re working out our faith with fear and trembling and the occasional swear word. I write several Bible studies and devotionals for people who cringe at the word “devotional”. I’m the Resident Bible Scholar over on the Faith Adjacent podcast, as well as the Senior Creative at the Popcast Media Group. That’s the fancy bio, but i love a fun fact, don’t you? if that’s your bag, here are some of mine.

01. i’m texas born + bred

My blood runs with real Dr. Pepper + Mrs. Baird’s bread. I am constantly on the lookout for yellow queso anywhere I go. I can recite the Texas Pledge of Allegiance and will perform it on demand, even if you didn’t demand it of me.

02. i have three kids + one husband.

I really like hanging out with my family. Our preferred activities include: whining on hikes, kitchen dance parties, and staring at our devices in the same room together. We also really love to eat. That’s probably our favorite thing.

03. i am a zac efron apologist.

If you gave me five minutes to prepare, I could give a thirty minute TED talk on Zac Efron’s entire career in film, why he needs a new agent, and how he was absolutely robbed from getting an Oscar with his performance in “The Iron Claw.”

04. I’m a self-taught bible nerd.

No shade to seminary, but I never went. I taught myself how to study the Bible based on other brilliant scholars and teachers, and am constantly learning new things. My favorite Biblical topics are the tabernacles and temples, the life of Jesus, and Ecclesiastes.

i’m writing for disentangling believers, post-evangelicals, and those burnt out and frustrated by white Christian nationalism and the cultural Christianity complex™️. I’m writing for everyone who feels angry and confused about the gap between how Christianity is presented in america and how jesus asked us to live as his followers. the disenchanted, the disillusioned, and the barely-hanging-on are welcome. this is a space for doubters, questioners, and anyone just flat out tired of pretending to have all the answers.

LISTEN TO FAITH ADJACENT

Catch me and my fine podcasting partners weekly on the Faith Adjacent podcast, part of the PMG Network. What started as a podcast to recap Bible stories in a slightly heretical way has become one of the consistent top Culture podcasts on Apple, with millions of downloads since its inception, and a thriving Patreon members-only community. Some of our most popular episodes are this one with N.T. Wright where we definitely asked him if he thought the Apostle Paul was hot, this one about The Reformation where we discovered Martin Luther was just really obsessed with poop metaphors, and this one all about the ancient Jewish temples. If you’re looking for a podcast that takes faith seriously but doesn’t necessarily take itself seriously, Faith Adjacent might be right for you.
