This week on RfRx, Jason Friedman joins us to discuss his journey from being a self-proclaimed prophet to being shunned by his Evangelical church group, leaving his faith and embarking on a difficult journey through abuse, depression, and later of healing and self (re)discovery. We’ll discuss finding new community, working through trauma, re-discovering one’s sexuality, and the fulfillment of experiencing new and old passions without the guilt of self-imposed, faith-based restrictions. Join us for another evening of hope and healing, and bring your questions for the Q&A with Jason!

Jason Friedman grew up in the Evangelical Movement in Texas during the Satanic Panic of the 80s and 90s. At 12, he was told he was a prophet of God, but was also under attack by demons. He was the subject of multiple exorcism attempts, to no avail, and was ultimately shunned by his church group and entire community. After going through numerous painful life experiences, Jason discovered the field of psychology and realized it was something he wanted to devote his life to. He is currently in school and pursuing a Masters of Science in Psychology. Jason can also be found volunteering for the Atheist Community of Austin and appearing as a host on several of their shows.
