Evangelical pastor quits the church, comes out—and joins OnlyFans {Wacky}
Daily Dot ^ | 25 September 2020 | Samira Sadeque

A woman who says she became an evangelical pastor because of her “love for performing” is now a hit on OnlyFans as a stripper—and fulfilling her childhood dream, she told the New York Post.

Nikole Mitchell, who grew up Baptist, told the Post she had “always fantasized about being a stripper” and has also come out as bisexual.

“But I was indoctrinated to believe my desires and my body were innately sinful and bad,” the 36-year-old said.

Her upbringing was fiercely conservative and taught her that women can’t be leaders and that their place is in the kitchen.

“So even though it went against everything I was told, I decided to become [a pastor] because of my love for performing,” she said.

Mitchell’s realization regarding her own sexuality came about in 2016 when she attended a play exploring themes of LGBTQ identity, which she says “rocked [her] world.”

“I was like, ‘Oh my gosh, I don’t think I’m straight,’” she said. But she was worried that the church she was part of would not accept it because of its anti-gay stance.

She’d been a pastor at a St. Paul, Minnesota, church that she’d joined with her now ex-husband. According to the Post, after she joined, she was invited to be a pastor, tapping into her dream of being on stage facing an audience of thousands.

But following her realization about her sexuality, Mitchell’s “very duplicitous life” was beginning to catch up to her, so she decided to leave the church without any elaborate announcement. A year after her reckoning about her sexuality, she gave her very last sermon at the church and quietly left.

Now, with more than 13,000 followers on Instagram, she routinely blogs about her journey and the positive turn it has taken.

“This isn’t about manipulating people or systems to get an end result,” she wrote in a post from August alongside a photo of her modeling thongs and stockings. “It’s about ALLOWING yourself to have what you want: a bigger reach, a bigger influence, a bigger income, and the kind of opportunities you dream of. There’s nothing wrong with wanting more.”

“Being in integrity is more important than being understood,” she wrote in a list of lessons she shared with her followers. “The only real loss is if you stop yourself from reaching your destiny.”

A liberal friend in my church said "the church needs to change with the times."

Well, here ya go. If homosexuality is OK, why isn't stripping?

What church was this? This has a bee was feel. Invited on Kimmel? Of course, a chance to bash Christians. Wake me when Kimmel has a stripper that repented and turned to Christ. I’ll bet there are a lit more in that category.

Laz would have a heart attack thinking about it.

I think her church is going to be quite successful. There are a lot of Pee-Wee Hermans in the world who would love to attend this kind of church. Just keep the lights turned down low.

This is a jokey thread, but you’ve hit a serious topic — there is a slippery slope. If a church allows divorce and then abortion, then it slips further and further and ultimately becomes like the Unitarians

There are quite a few of those.

Gamecock —> Alex Murphy and Dr. Eckleburg disappeared (raptured) from FR way back in 2015 and 2012 respectively.

I used to watch videos of some gal that I really liked preaching. She used to be a porn star, found God and married some old guy that was a preacher. She would go into the Greek and Hebrew and really get to the root of a Bible passage. I’m pretty sure she is legit.

Hey - here she is still preaching! Dr. Melissa Scott. Just the beginning of Covid-19. “Faith in the Face of Panic”.

She sounds like she might fit in at FR. “So the regular flu has 43 million cases every year...”

If the pastor is a “she”, she isn’t evangelical.

Physically, she looks good for 36.

But as a Stripper she’s getting in the game old. Not much of a career path left there.

Morally...she’ll eventually figure out the wages of sin.
