What If Deconstructing Your Faith Isn't a Phase but a Holy Process? There's probably a really good reason you picked up this book. Are you desperate to be in relationship with family or friends who are questioning their faith? Are you experiencing your own deconstruction of faith? Here is your invitation to rethink everything you thought you knew. In this process, you'll . . . learn why it's important to deconstruct (and how we are wired to do it); define deconstruction and deconversion--what they really mean; consider WWJD (What Would Jesus Deconstruct?); and apply the FUSE method to deconstruct for yourself. Deconstruct Faith, Discover Jesus will help you to enter the mindset of a deconstructionist. A worldview with a high capacity for paradoxes. A mental space that outweighs your self-interest in being right. A tendency to see Christian beliefs as inseparable from Christian ethics. In doing so, you will find the original deconstructionist, Jesus, right beside you.

What If Deconstructing Your Faith Isn’t a Phase but a Holy Process?
There’s probably a really good reason you picked up this book. Are you desperate to be in relationship with family or friends who are questioning their faith? Are you experiencing your own deconstruction of faith?
Here is your invitation to rethink everything you thought you knew.
In this process, you’ll . . .
- learn why it’s important to deconstruct (and how we are wired to do it);
- define deconstruction and deconversion―what they really mean;
- consider WWJD (What Would Jesus Deconstruct?); and
- apply the FUSE method to deconstruct for yourself.
Deconstruct Faith, Discover Jesus will help you to enter the mindset of a deconstructionist. A worldview with a high capacity for paradoxes. A mental space that outweighs your self-interest in being right. A tendency to see Christian beliefs as inseparable from Christian ethics.
In doing so, you will find the original deconstructionist, Jesus, right beside you.

From the Back Cover
After countless hours of interviews with people who have deconstructed Christianity, Preston Ulmer found that many were told they weren’t Christian before they chose to leave their faith.
Exiled before exiting.
Pushed out for wrestling.
Called “trouble” for calling out the tension.
If you look closely, you’ll find that Jesus lived out his faith this way too, deconstructing the parts of religion that we had gotten wrong in order to portray God more clearly. Some people loved him for it. Others crucified him. And his followers are experiencing similar reactions today.
So how do we relate to friends and family who have become skeptical of beliefs they were taught in church? In this case, we renew our minds, which might include rethinking everything we thought we knew for the sake of the unconvinced (Romans 12:2). Are you ready to deconstruct your faith and discover Jesus?
