Vanessa Caruso and Andy Withrow introduce a new podcast for the Vancouver Island School of Theology and the Arts (VISTA) and promote an upcoming conference titled "Blessed are the undone," featuring keynote speaker Angela Reitsma Bick and pre-conference lecturer Peter Schuurman. The conference, scheduled for May 15 and June 6-7, 2025, will explore the book "Blessed are the undone: testimonies of the quiet deconstruction of faith in Canada," co-authored by Bick and Schuurman. The book discusses the phenomenon of faith deconstruction in Canada, using canoe camping as a metaphor for the spiritual journey. Bick emphasizes the importance of addressing the triggers for deconstruction and the need for reconciliation within the church.
