About this listen

Defeated in her marriage and disheartened with the church, Angela Sue Garvey recalls growing up in the evangelical church during the purity culture of the '90s. Once married, she found herself sitting across from an evangelical pastor who advised her to be quiet and submissive to a husband who routinely destroyed her.

She recounts her spiral into a decade-long spiritual crisis and the growing bitterness and cynicism she felt as she questioned her place in the church and with God. Still wanting to find love, Garvey opens up about starting over and the spiritual baggage that followed her into a second marriage and motherhood, while still desperately trying to find belonging.

Honest and hilarious, she shares the religious act of her tummy tuck and downsizing her home to 375 square feet while processing the loneliness of a faith shift.

It's her story of heartbreak, deconstruction, and quitting things that weren't for her anymore, including bad theology, holding grudges, and hiding from criticism with thoughts on restaurant prayer, Zumba twerking, eHarmony, and who is going to hell.

Tiny Homes & Tummy Tucks is for those who are questioning everything they were taught about God and for those who innately feel like the red-headed stepchild of Christianity. It is a timely story related to church hurt, deconstruction, and faith reconstruction.
