Welcome to Have a Blessed Gay, your weekly spiritual-comedy podcast! Join holy host, Tyler Martin, as he critically discusses social norms, current events, mental health, religion, and spirituality from an outcast's perspective. In this week’s episode, Tyler is releasing his inner religion and history nerd and diving into the history of Christianity. Who the hell started the religion?
Was it Jesus? Was it Paul? Was it Peter or James? Tyler examines the Bible, looking through scripture, and historical evidence to determine who exactly began the religion. Knowing the history surrounding Christianity can help us deconstruct, fight against privilege, and understand the difference between religion as an institution and spirituality as a personal journey.
