Author Description

Deconstruction is hard!<br/><br/>Bad views of God and harmful experiences lead many of us to deconstruct. But we’re right to run from the nonsense we’ve been taught and from those who hurt us.<br/><br/>God After Deconstruction will not be welcomed by traditionalists. It’s not a book for people who want the status quo or who think conventional theology works. It isn’t for people who just want to tweak a bit what they’ve been taught.<br/><br/>Thomas Jay Oord and Tripp Fuller offer an open and relational vision of God. This vision makes sense; it fits our experience; it’s livable. The open and relational view aligns with our deep intuitions about love and freedom.<br/><br/>God After Deconstruction is for those deconstructing and those wanting help after deconstruction. It’s for people in the fire and those with scars.<br/><br/>God After Deconstruction is an adventure for lovers in tumultuous times!<br/><br/>Buy this book!<br/><br/>Six-Word Endorsements for God After Deconstruction<br/><br/>“When everything goes, only God remains.”<br/>-- Simon Cross, chair of the Progressive Christianity Network (Britain)<br/><br/>"Helpful companion on your deconstruction journey.”<br/>-- EDJ, author of Deconstructing Religious Sexual Trauma: A Memoir<br/><br/>“A faith beyond deconstruction is possible.”<br/>-- Kathy Escobar, author of Faith Shift and Practicing<br/><br/>“A relational way to think about purpose.”<br/>-- Jonathan J.
