Story
Bad views of God and harmful experiences lead many of us to deconstruct. But were right to run from the nonsense we've been taught and from those who hurt us. God After Deconstruction is not a book for people who want the status quo or who think conventional theology works. It isn't for people who just want to tweak a bit what they've been taught. Thomas Jay Oord and Tripp Fuller offer an open and relational vision of God.

Story
We cannot talk about God with any degree of certainty, because God is, by definition, a being who transcends imagination, expectation, and comprehension. What we know is this: There is more of God to know than any of us will ever fully know in this life. So, let's begin by embracing the mystery of Christ to discover the endlessly unfolding beauty of uncertainty.

Story
What happens when you deconstruct your faith? Aside from all the theological messiness it brings, deconstruction brings with it a lot of personal trauma. Friends and family often distance themselves. Your church sometimes removes you from the pews. And often, you are left with nothing. Enter Michelle Collins' debut book, Into the Gray: The Mental and Emotional Aftermath of Spiritual Deconstruction. Far from a "how-to" guide, this book is much more "pastoral" in that it allows the listener to check in with a fellow spiritual sojourner.

Publisher's Summary
Learning to Float is a life preserver when you find yourself adrift in the midst of your faith journey. When waves of doubt and anxiety threaten to rise above your head, or when you simply find yourself weary of swimming in the midst of unending waters, this book is your buoy. It's the gentle arms of friends holding you up so that you can breathe, even as currents of questions continue to sweep you up and move you along. It's the comforting whisper in your ear when you need it the most: "It's okay; I've got you. You're not alone."
Matthew J. Distefano knows his theology and philosophy, but far more importantly, he is 100-percent authentic. And as he mediates his story through conversation with Michelle Collins—whose wisdom, compassion, and friendship guide him as he articulates his deconstruction process—listeners are bound to see parallels to their own journeys and struggles.
