Title:
Before you lose your faith : deconstructing doubt in the church
Summary:
"Yet another social-media post announces departure from the Christian faith. The cause could be sex, race, politics, social justice, science, hell--or all of the above. For many, Christianity is becoming implausible, even impossible to believe. While it might be tempting to leave the church in order to find answers, Before you lose your faith argues that church should be the best place to deal with doubts. This book shows deconstructing need not end in unbelief. In fact, deconstructing can be the road toward reconstructing--building up a more mature, robust faith that grapples honestly with the deepest questions of life."-- Page [4] of cover.
