Season 5, Episode 11 - Special Guest: Brett Terpstra
Certain faith communities hurt their people in the name of God with their inconsistent theology and hypocritical beliefs. One way to get healthy is to deconvert and deconstruct your true self beyond the harms of your former religion and/or faith. Brett has gone through much of that journey, and is still going through it with many freinds suffering and struggling the same. How does your religion need to deconstruct to give people more room to hope and love?
