About RIAV

Thanks for checking me out! My goal is to be the “Local Christian Bookstore” – but for the ex-christians… and online.

This project began during the late stages of COVID-19 when my local coffee shop began hosting church services on Sunday mornings when only small groups were allowed to meet. Being a facetious little prick, I didn’t take kindly to having my “safe space” overrun by what I knew to be a homophobic church… I thought “What’s the most offensive thing I can create here wihtout getting kicked out?” I angled my laptop screen in view of the attendees and started designing my “Ex-Christian” stickers.. and one website and a few design’s later, here we are.

Yes, I understand that “not all believers…” and true. I know that some great people/churches are safe and welcoming places for LGBTQIA+ people. However, this is not true of the MAJORITY of religious spaces across the USA. And until that changes, I’ll be making shirts.
