What happens when your faith starts to change?
“My child is walking away from God!”
“I know I don’t believe what I used to but I don’t know what I believe now!”
“How can I believe in God at all anymore?”
What happens when your faith starts to change?
Deconstructing our faith is letting go of any part of whatever you believe that does NOT tell you that you are absolutely, unconditionally acceptance, included, loved and beloved.
It can be scary and feel overwhelming. But it is one of the most beautiful things you will ever do.
What remains is real and pure and celebrates who you are, without condition.
