We are living in an age of de-conversion. If you’ve had a Christian friend walk away from the faith, you know what a painful and confusing experience it can be. It may even shake your own belief.
In this episode of Let’s Talk, Jackie, Jasmine, and Melissa talk about the pain of watching someone lose their faith. They discuss why so many people are deconstructing their beliefs and what sorts of things churches may be able to do walk with those who are doubting so that they don’t ultimately walk away. They also note that while the language we use to describe doubt may be new, the phenomenon is not.
