Have you met or known anyone who stepped away from their faith? Maybe they said, "We aren't attending church right now because we are deconstructing our faith." More and more people are using the term deconstruction. It is a term that means the process that Christians or former Christians use to examine how their relationship with God has been influenced by traditions, theology, church leadership, and societal factors experienced in our modern context. For some, this may have developed from hurtful situations in the church. It could develop from the growing apart from their faith. Deconstruction can often end with Christians walking away from the church or fully from their faith. But it doesn't have to be this way. It can also be a time of just learning that you are holding onto man-made traditions versus really knowing and following God. Maybe you will make changes as you get rid of bad teaching and find out what the bible really says. 

Join Gretchen Peters and Maggie Butterfield as they discuss those who have gone down the path of deconstruction. Is this a wise move? How does deconstruction affect those around us? Is this the right term to use for this process?
