There is a troubling trend called "deconstruction" infiltrating our churches and affecting friends, family, and spouses. It's why we've seen well-known musicians and pastors walk away from the faith in the past few years. It has disrupted, dismantled, and destroyed the faith of many. Our guest is Alisa Childers, who co-authored a book called The Deconstruction of Christianity: What It Is, Why It’s Destructive, and How to Respond with Tim Barnett of Stand to Reason. Their book—and our conversation in this episode—is intended to help you not only understand what’s happening but also stand your ground and respond with clarity and confidence.
