👉 LIFE AFTER CHRISTIANITY 101 (Archived Radio Show)
Life After Christianity (LAC) was a radio show and online discussion created for people who were questioning, leaving, or had already left organized religion. Hosted by Empress T, the program provided a place where former believers could share their experiences, ask difficult questions, and support one another while navigating life beyond Christ
ianity. Although Life After Christianity is no longer producing new episodes, this page remains online as an archive of an important chapter in my journey and the conversations that helped shape my work today. If you're looking for my current research, books, and projects, please visit:

👉 ABOUT THE HOST
Empress T spent more than four decades immersed in organized religion before ultimately walking away from Christianity after years of personal study and reflection. Raised Baptist, she later practiced Pentecostalism, Islam, Hebrew Israelite teachings, and non-denominational Christianity. Throughout those years she served in numerous ministry roles, including choir member, missionary board member, usher, Sunday School teacher, Bible study teacher, Pastor's Aid/Armor Bearer, and became a nationally licensed minister under a prominent bishop. Those experiences provided firsthand insight into religious institutions from both the congregation and leadership perspectives. Today, Empress T encourages people to think critically, ask questions, and research for themselves. My goal is to encourage independent thought and personal research. Nobody can liberate your mind for you—but someone can hand you the key."
👉 A NOTE FROM EMPRESS T
There was a time when I dedicated my life to teaching others how to become Christians. Today, I dedicate my time to encouraging people to examine what they believe, why they believe it, and whether those beliefs can withstand honest investigation. Life After Christianity was never about telling people what they had to believe. It was about creating a safe place to ask questions that many people felt they couldn't ask anywhere else. While this chapter has come to a close, the pursuit of truth continues. Thank you to everyone who listened, called in, shared your story, and walked this journey with me. The conversation has evolved—but the mission to encourage independent research remains the same.
