The Deconstructionists

Ep 2 - Simon Forsythe ”Doubting and Belonging?”


Listen Later

Is it possible to belong without believing? Is community possible while going through a deconstruction process? Can we avoid the big mistake of making beliefs the central premise of our love and commitment to others? There has to be a better way. Adam and John discuss these concepts and more with a special co-host, the devilishly handsome, witty, warm (and sometimes glib) Pastor Simon Forsythe. Simon has an uncanny knack for bringing messy, diverse people together. People who believe different things and live different lives. He shares some critiques of "church", "religion" as well as some general insights on belonging while dealing with doubt and deconstruction. He also has the most gorgeous accent you've ever heard in your entire life. Enjoy! Remember, deconstructing might be the most important thing you ever do. But never do it alone. This is a safe place and we are here for you. Hang with us. Listen. Learn. Question your own system. We would love to hear from you. Contact us at [email protected]
