Mormon Vlogger to Rebel: Die Shiny’s Bold Music on Temple Secrets

Ойын-сауық

Join me for a deeply emotional and candid interview with the members of Die Shiny, Callie Crofts and Zac Bryant, as they share their personal journeys, music, and the profound stories behind their new song "Sacrament." This intimate conversation touches on the impact of Callie's mom's cancer and her eventual passing, the unique dynamics of Colette Butler and Callie's relationship, the influence of the music of their youth, Zac's journey leaving the church, their rise to fame on KZread, awakening to the falsehoods of the temple, navigating divorce, and their liberation from certain aspects of their Mormon past. Discover the songwriting process behind "Sacrament," its lyrics and symbolism, the unbreakable bond between these remarkable musicians, and the love and support that has propelled their journey forward.

    I think I found my worth ... I think it's not here. When I escaped a Calvanist / Gothard / Bob Jones family in 1970 I never looked back. The journey has been mine. Totally disconnected. One Aunt who mentored me through my early reconstruction 'saw" me. The journey has been unconventional during an era of remarkable chaos. My heart goes out to subsequent generations of the children I never had struggling to make sense of the imposition of 'religious' enslavement.

    Agreed!! It was wild to hear almost my exact story coming from this awesome stranger's voice. Comforting to know that multiple people understand (and also so sad to hear how many of us were) being starved for affection in a relationship with the person who was supposed to love us most. Glad we're freed from that. ❤

    All the stuff about the emotionally unavailable partner resonate with me. I’m an expert at choosing the emotionally unavailable, yet I yearn for emotional intimacy. In two long term relationships I learned much more than I really care to know about all the different ways that lack of intimacy can manifest. So sorry you spent 8 years trying and kept hearing you were the one with the problem- been there. It’s funny too because ending a relationship with that kind of person is really hard. It’s almost like the only way to extricate yourself is to have someone else show you what you’ve been missing. That’s because when they keep telling you you’re the one with the problem there’s nothing to grasp on to as a reason to end it. They act so “reasonable” and what’s your problem anyway? So passive-aggressive. Ugh! Then all that passive-aggressive behavior can suddenly convert to outright aggression (not necessarily physical) once you finally say you’ve had enough. The first partner I went through this with agreed to therapy once I said I wanted to leave. After the third session in which she sat mostly silent while I poured my heart out, she said, “How long do we have to keep doing this?” Crazy making. Great episode!

    I have never heard of the woman and her songs but I plan to look her up. The story her story was interesting and eye opening. When she said she married a man who lied and told this conversion dream to get her. Then The marriage mirage began and he doesnt Touch her he doesn't want to have relations with her. And she communicates she talks to him again and again. That there's something missing that maybe he doesn't love her that there's something wrong. Is he happy and he's like he's fine. He's happy but it's her anxiety or it's her imagination it's just fine everything's great. I met a liar like that too. I married a liar like that too. And I didn't even know what word Narcissist meant until five years ago. It was depressing discouraging. And I didn't tell anyone either...... And somehow when my father passed away, convinced him. What would he do if he wanted to have a son. Now in his culture , it's very important to have a son or a child or something. But if we were doing anything it was next to impossible. But I did convince him one night and his best effort. Because he usually had no effort no stamina nothing. I conceived. I knew it was ovulation I knew it was the time I could conceive. Well I did stay with him for 2 more years After that. But I felt so empty so lost. Because it was a loveless marriage. There is no affection there was no knowing each other. It was like a fake marriage. On the outside , everyone just thought we were married and happy and we didn't really argue. It was just strange and he really wanted people to look at him as great. And I was very depressed and unhappy and just oppressed. I had all my duties to him. And he didn't provide for the household. He just walked around as if he was very self important. Circumstances were such that I didn't feel safe to stay. Political things were going on and there was a sixteen day strike which means everything was closed for a full sixteen days. And I said I have to go home. He became mad at me said that he'll die for his beliefs yata yada. He wouldn't work for his family he wouldn't do anything to make us survive. He wouldn't tell the truth or be honest. There are a lot of more details But I just ended up going home. The police escorted us out after sixteen days. When I got home... He refused to talk to me for a year. He just sent letters like he's going to die for his cause and his belief. And his friends were telling me I need to come back he never beat me. But they didn't know anything about how he was and that he didn't provide period that he lied everyday. Or that he didn't even want to touch me from the night we were married. And I was worried how would we keep the household. How we would buy food clothes. And what if we reached an emergency like the 16th day strike? How are we gonna provide for ourselves. And he walked around as if he was a king or something. And everything that didn't work he blamed on me He had even stole my valuable things. I told him if he doesn't stop his friends from writing me. I'm going to tell them. Tell them everything. And he continued to make them write me But I did convince him finally I was going to expose him . My silence is the only thing he had going for him. So he made them stop. And I never saw him again I did talk to him a few times. After a year or two I told him it's just over because...... Everything i've already said and nothing changed. Yes response was so many other women want him..... And basically that was that. He admitted he was unfaithful to me. And I was like go on then You never wanted me. So I knew he was out there trying to trap someone else. They would eventually know that he wasn't interested in women. So um I really heard you and I understood what you were probably going through. Cause i've been through that myself. I am happy you found someone you and who was affectionate towards you. About the video and the Joan of arc Parts. I really liked. The story of Joan of arc. I don't understand what interviewer was saying about don't watch passion of the Christ. I think if you've lived your life and had faith in God. There is nothing wrong with the movie the passion of the Christ. Even Joan of ark wouldn't have been known at all if she didn't believe in the Christs death and passion for us. So I did benefit to hear everything Shared , I just didn't like what she said in regards to Christ's passion or the movie. I was thinking our use was to believe in The passion of journal of arc but not the passion of Christ. I hope that even though you are not a part of that Church That you didn't throw away your belief in God. I have never been a morman. But I grew up in a very strict church. I walked away from that church also as an adult. But i've never walked away from God. I hope that you havent. Ultimately , I thought that your father brought you up well because he made you able to think if something was right or not. There are systems and there are beliefs that are so overwhelming. They demand everything from you. And God isn't like that He didn't use Ritual and religiousness to trick you, But they do. I'm sayig God is the pure essence And he is eternal life. No I was confused for a time...... I want it none of it. And then I realized I needed him and he didn't let me down. The church let me down different teachers. Let me down my mother really let me down. But still God was there. They're personal prayer and seeking him myself. Reading the bible myself seeing freedom in the bible that I had never heard. It made my faith real in my time with God real. And I don't regret that at all. I only wanted a church that was real. Something reflecting what it says of the new testament. Where people are set free and they're blessed. I have different people. I listen to on the internet , and I do have a church that does live that way and it's interdenominational. And they pray for you. So I just wanted to say that like a lot of bad things happen We grow up....... And God is real He is not a bunch of religious traditions and temple visits. May He bless you and show you who He is.❤
