What is the first thing you think of when you hear the word deconstruction? Negativity? Loss? It’s a popular word, if not a polarizing one. We can think of it as the process people go through when turning away from their faith, but it can be used in different ways. Deconstruction at its worst can be tearing things down without feeling the need to discover. But deconstruction can be healthy when people going through it have the courage to ask the really hard question of what and why do I believe in. Wolfgang ends our series, “That’s a Promise,” with the reassurance that God wants to hear our questions, even the really hard ones. Because wrestling with our faith doesn’t make us bad Christians—it’s the opposite. It makes us normal. Join us as we talk about what it’s like to have the courage to honestly ask questions and wrestle with what’s real and what’s true. The goal isn’t simply to destroy, it’s to discover, or re-discover what’s authentic within your faith.
