unChristian Deconstruction

Yesterday, I published my third article in my series: 'unChristian: Deconstruction For the Rest of Us'

In my work as a deconstruction and religious trauma counselor, I have noticed a shift in people’s leaving-religion process. There are of course people whose process involves reframing Christianity with a more enlightened biblical hermeneutic. Exvangelicals might be an example. However, I have seen an increase in people who are disinterested in re-hashing Christianity in their post-religion spirituality. I am writing this series of articles to offer a variety of deconstruction and reconstruction mindsets and tools that are unhinged from the Christian framework.

  • Part One: When you can't do anything "Christian" anymore
  • Part Two: Hindu philosophy as a useful deconstruction framework
  • Part Three: What if Buddha was your deconstruction counselor?

The next two articles will explore Secular Humanism and Mother-Earth Spirituality.
