Marty Shoemaker - Sex, Psychology, & Humanism

Dr. Martin Shoemaker SEX, PSYCHOLOGY, AND HUMANISMDivorced: Evangelical ChristianityDr. Martin Shoemaker was raised in a devout evangelical Christian home in California. While attending Fuller Seminary, his faith was fragmented by studying theology and secular psychology at the same time. He left the church and finished his PhD in clinical psychology, eventually discovering humanism through friends in Canada. For the last several years, Marty has volunteered as a humanist chaplain in British Columbia, which is where we met at a local event for atheists, skeptics, and humanists. In this episode, Dr. Shoemaker discusses his transition out of religion and into secular life, from sports to sex to humanism.Support this podcast on Patreon and get access to bonus content: https://www.patreon.com/janiceselbieGet your tickets to the Conference on Religious Trauma 2023 https://www.religioustraumaconference.org/Subscribe to the audio-only version here: https://www.divorcing-religion.com/religious-trauma-podcastGet your free consultation with Janice, book 1:1 sessions, or sign up for the Divorcing Religion Workshop here: https://www.divorcing-religion.com/Get your recordings from the Shameless Sexuality: Life After Purity Culture conference here: https://www.religioustraumaconference.org/registerFollow Janice and the Conference on Religious Trauma on Social Media: Twitter: https://twitter.com/divorcereligionTwitter: https://twitter.com/Wise_counsellorTwitter: https://twitter.com/ComeToCORTFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/janice.selbieFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/DivorcingReligionFacebook: https://www.facebook.com/ConferenceOnReligiousTraumaTikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@janiceselbieInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/wisecounsellor/The Divorcing Religion Podcast is for entertainment purposes only.
