The Deconstruction of Christianity

What It Is, Why It’s Destructive, and How to Respond

Narrado por: Alisa Childers, Tim Barnett

A groundbreaking book on the true nature of faith deconstruction

Alisa and Tim help the reader to deconstruct the deconstructionists and thus to respond to them, both with arguments and with love and sensitivity. This is a timely book! -- Carl Trueman, author of The Rise and Triumph of the Modern Self

A movement called ‘deconstruction’ is sweeping through our churches and it is affecting our loved ones. It has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of so many, and this book can help you not only understand what’s happening but also stand your ground and respond with clarity and confidence.

• Maybe you have a loved one who is deconstructing their faith, and you are struggling to know how to respond;
• Maybe you are trying to understand the radical spiritual makeover your friend or family member is going through;
• Maybe your relationship with a loved one has been strained or even cut off because of your “toxic” Christian beliefs and you don’t know what to do;
• Maybe you’re experiencing doubt yourself and facing hard questions about truth, God, the Bible, theology and the gospel.

Some who leave the faith feel wounded by the church. Others feel repressed by some of the moral imperatives found in Scripture. For some, it leads to a custom-made spirituality. For others, deconstructing their faith leads them away from the truth into agnosticism, atheism, the occult, or humanism.

In this seminal book, Alisa Childers, author of Another Gospel?, and Tim Barnett, creator of Red Pen Logic, will help you understand what deconstruction is, where it comes from, why it is compelling to some, and how it disorients the lives of so many. You will be able to think through the main issues around faith deconstruction and explore wise and loving ways to respond from a biblical worldview.

A superb resource!

This book is accessible, clear and helpful. I believe it is a wonderful resource for those who have family members and friends who are deconstructing. Indeed, for those who believe they are deconstructing, it is a good book for them to consider, too.

Excellent Breakdown of Deconstruction and the Exvangelical Movement

This work is a breakdown of deconstruction and provides a useful path forward for those with people they love who are struggling with their faith and in deconstruction.

A much needed treatise to a world in conflict.

Alisa & Tim write with authority and knowledge while addressing a very serious battle raging within 21st Century Christianity. As university science, psychology, philosophy, literature and sociology (all required studies) undermine and deconstruct western civilization and Judeo-Christian thought and ethics, our society devolves into chaos. As a believer, I am reminded of an admonition voiced by Christian songwriter Keith Green 🎶 How can you be so dead, when you’ve been so well fed? 🎶
It is critical that we as believers know what we believe, why we believe it, and are prepared with honest, and meaningful answers when asked. Alisa & Tim provide a good starting place.
