Praise Be To Pod
Ashley and Bailee are reclaiming their spirituality after leaving the evangelical church behind. Join them for candid conversations about the twists and turns of deconstruction, spirituality, pop culture, mental health, astrology, self-care, and all the things that make life interesting after the altar call. Together, we’ll laugh, reflect, and discover what we still believe in.

Unpaid in Full: Servant's Heart or Exploitation?
This week, Bailee and Ashley explore the often-overlooked ways churches rely on—and sometimes exploit—free labor, financial giving, and personal sacrifice from their members.
In Unpaid in Full, we take a closer look at the culture of service in many evangelical spaces, where volunteering is framed as a calling, and giving your time, money, and energy is seen as a measure of faithfulness. We talk about how this dynamic shaped our understanding of generosity, self-worth, and spiritual obligation—and the lasting impact it had on our boundaries, burnout, and relationship with work.
Join us as we reflect on our experiences and consider what it looks like to give freely without losing ourselves in the process.
