In today’s podcast you are going to meet one of my good old friends, Connie Koo. As a former member of a mega church that went through a public scandal, we reflect on her faith journey throughout her experience and how it affected her current relationship with the church.

In today’s Fractured Faith Book Launch series, we’re going to look at deconstruction from a different perspective. Questioning beliefs or practices that are popular but not necessarily biblical can lead to a deconstruction that, although painful, can bring about a faith that is grounded in what Jesus taught rather than Western Christianity and a faith that reflects His character more.

Don't miss today's podcast with my friend Carlos Rodríguez, founder of The Happy NPO.

Today’s conversation in our Fractured Faith Book Launch series is with my friend Wendy Alsup, author of Companions in Suffering and Practical Theology for Women.

As the former Women’s Ministry Director at Mars Hill, Wendy has lived through church hurt and disillusionment with church leadership but has also come to the confidence that Scripture can be trusted, that God is a God of justice, and that we can reengage with a healthy community of believers.

In this podcast conversation with Dr. Wade Mullen we’ll address some questions many of us have been asking lately about church and corrupt leadership:

• What are the signs of oppressive individuals and organizations?

In this conversation with professor, author, and speaker Karen Swallow Prior, you will hear us talk about:

• The top issues that lead to deconstruction and abandoning of faith

Today I’m continuing our podcast series focused on Fractured Faith with a conversation with Julie Roys, a veteran investigative reporter and founder of The Roys Report.

Toxic church leadership and unhealthy church systems often lead to hurt, disillusionment with the Christian life, deconstruction, and even a total abandonment of the Christian faith. What hope is there for the church in this era? What would it look like for us to confront sin and yet weep over it and reflect the graceful heart of Jesus? How can we find and become communities of believers that are kingdom oriented, striving to pass on the faith to the next generations?

Today I’m launching a new podcast series focused on my new book Fractured Faith and for the next couple of weeks I’ll be sharing with you some encouraging conversations with people who might have experienced some form of deconstruction, faith crisis, or have gone through church hurt. To kick off this podcast series I will be reading to you today the introduction to the book, called My Story. This is a short episode that I believe will touch anyone and everyone.   

Today is a unique, fun episode! Diana, my sister and our Director of Operations is interviewing me with a Q&A session about Fractured Faith.

I believe you’ll enjoy and benefit from this talk as I will be sharing my heart behind my new book and answer questions I received from our followers.

In today’s podcast I will share the story behind my new book Fractured Faith: Finding Your Way Back to God in an Age of Deconstruction (Moody Publishers, Releasing Sept. 7). 

This book is for everyone who has ever longed to know God in such a way that the choices of others no longer interrupt their worship. And if that’s already happened, you’ll see you’re not alone as you sort through and manage the pain.

In this podcast I want to share with you three lies we believe that can lead to the deconstruction of our faith – the process that happens when a person asks questions that lead to the dismantling of their previous beliefs.
