Have you or your kids ever wrestled with hard questions about faith? If so, you're not alone and you're definitely in the right place today. This week, I'm talking with Nicholas McDonald about his personal journey through disillusionment, deconstruction, and ultimately a deep renewal of his hope in Jesus. His honesty, wisdom, and compassion are such a gift to parents who are navigating this with their kids or experiencing it themselves.Here are four takeaways from our conversation:Nicholas shows how asking hard questions can actually deepen faith when approached in a safe, truth-filled environment.Community is key. He shares why isolation makes doubt heavier and how loving, honest relationships can carry us through it.Parents don't need to have all the answers. Walking with your child through their questions with empathy and humility is more powerful than a perfect explanation.Hope is always on the table even in the hardest seasons, God's love remains, and he invites us to keep wrestling, trusting, and returning.Nicholas is a pastor, writer, and speaker with a heart for helping people encounter Jesus through the truth of Scripture and the beauty of story. He is the author of The Light in Our Eyes: Rediscovering the Love, Beauty, and Freedom of Jesus in an Age of Disillusionment, and his teaching often bridges the gap between doubt and belief for a new generation of Christians.I know this conversation will encourage your heart and give you practical wisdom for those messy, holy moments of parenting. You don't have to be perfect—you just have to show up.(00:00) Introduction and Background(05:24) Disillusionment with the Church(10:46) Parenting and Faith Challenges(16:27) The Importance of Community(22:02) Hope for the Future of FaithConnect with NickX accountSubstackThe Light in Our Eyes bookResources MentionedChristian Parenting resourcesA Great Cloud of Witnesses Prayer JournalThe Christian Parenting Podcast is a part of the Christian Parenting Podcast Network.

Ep. 346 - Examining the “Deconstruction” Movement

The Living Waters Podcast

Play Episode Listen Later Jul 10, 2025 65:13 Transcription Available


Deconstruction is the process of dismantling previously held beliefs which begins with the self as the final authority. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar warn that this posture can lead to a rejection of truth and, ultimately, to turning away from God. Many begin deconstructing in response to frustrations with the modern evangelical church, but in doing so, they sometimes discard core doctrines of the faith. The guys emphasize that Christianity doesn't promise happiness, but righteousness. When the gospel is altered to appeal to comfort or culture, it creates false converts who have a false sense of assurance. The path is narrow; following Christ is not easy. While it is good for believers to examine their beliefs, that examination must be built on the foundation of Scripture. Deconstruction often strays from this by starting with self rather than God. The guys make a distinction between deconstruction and honest doubt—doubt that humbly seeks truth in God's Word. Much of today's church culture has endorsed blind faith or discouraged critical thinking. As a result, people don't walk away because they think too much—they walk away because they haven't thought enough, or they've thought apart from Scripture.The guys note that many who deconstruct focus on isolated issues and fail to see the bigger picture. Faith isn't about having all the answers; sometimes it's simply trusting that God does. Referencing 1 John 2:19, the guys remind listeners that leaving the faith doesn't bring freedom. Even John the Baptist, who baptized Jesus, still questioned near the end of his life. The hope isn't in the strength of our faith but in the strength of Christ—the object of our faith.Doubt is often tied to unmet expectations. As the guys point out, fulfillment is found in Christ alone. We don't resolve our doubts through deconstruction; we bring them to Jesus. Our hearts choose what to believe and our minds follow. Seeing the beauty of Christ realigns our thoughts. Faith is not abstract; it is grounded in the truth of the gospel and the Word of God. Scripture wasn't given just for information—it was given to transform us. The guys discuss the role of modern culture, particularly social media, in shaping beliefs. The church has a discipleship problem; people attend on Sunday but are immersed in worldly rhythms by Monday. To the deconstructionist, the guys ask: what are your daily habits? Be honest about how you're being shaped. Ask your questions, but ask them in the presence of God, with Scripture open. God is real. He is the prime reality. Run to Him—not away.Send us a textThanks for listening!

Deconstruction is described as a process that begins with placing the self as the final authority, which often leads to the rejection of biblical truth. Ray, E.Z., Mark, and Oscar caution that this mindset can result in abandoning essential doctrines rather than simply addressing church-related frustrations. The guys stress that Christianity promises righteousness, not comfort, and warn that altering the gospel to suit personal preferences creates false converts. While examining beliefs is healthy, the guys emphasize that such reflection must be grounded in Scripture and humility. Honest doubt seeks truth in God's Word, unlike deconstruction, which often isolates issues and leans on emotion. The guys highlight the dangers of modern influences like social media and the lack of true discipleship in the church. They encourage believers to be aware of daily habits, bring doubts to God, and remember that salvation rests not in the strength of one's faith, but in the strength of Christ.Send us a textThanks for listening!

"Deconstruction” is another buzz word that is becoming more and more popular amongst Christians. The reality is, this is not a new concept, it has been happening for a long time. Once we grow up, start living on our own, getting married and start making our own decisions, we begin to question all we've already based our lives on from our upbringing. We begin to question it all. Join host Andrew Marcus as he sits down with church planter and pastor of Every Nation at the Surrey SFU campus Matt Johnson as they unpack deconstruction, its dangers and what our firm foundation must be throughout the whole process.

At some point, many of us reach a moment when our beliefs no longer fit the reality we're living. In this episode, Justin and Abi open up about their personal journeys through deconstruction—what it looked like, what it cost, and how it ultimately deepened their faith. They unpack why questioning your faith isn't rebellion—it's often a necessary part of maturing spiritually. Whether sparked by suffering, disillusionment, or simply the invitation to grow, deconstruction invites us to reassess what we believe and why. But it's not just about tearing things down—it's about making space for love, humility, and a more authentic connection with God. This conversation covers everything from the emotional upheaval of spiritual uncertainty to the gift of discovering God is bigger—and kinder—than we imagined. If you've ever felt like you don't belong in the faith circles you once called home, or like asking questions makes you dangerous, this episode will help you feel seen. Deconstruction doesn't mean losing faith. Sometimes it's the most radical act of trust.

Send us a textToday, we welcome a conversation with Dr. Christian Smith, one of America's leading sociologists of religion. He studied at Wheaton and Gordon College, earned an M.A. and PhD at Harvard, and serves currently as the William R. Kenan Jr. Professor of Sociology at the University of Notre Dame. You may know him from his groundbreaking research on adolescent spirituality, but in this episode, we dive into the sweeping themes of his current book, Why Religion Went Obsolete: The Demise of Traditional Faith in America, released in April 2025 from Oxford University Press.We examine the profound cultural and generational shifts that have contributed to the decline of religion in America—what Dr. Smith refers to as a slow but steady obsolescence. From the rise of the “nones” and the “spiritual but not religious,” to the scandals, the loss of clergy credibility, and the overwhelming politicization of faith, especially within evangelical circles, we unpack it all. Dr. Smith is data-driven, deeply thoughtful, and committed to honesty—he doesn't just describe the trends; he interprets them with nuance and care.We also talk about the fears that drive some religious communities to build protective bubbles—Christian schools, worldview camps, media silos—and how those moves may be accelerating the very decline they fear. This is a conversation about cultural change, generational transitions, science, sexuality, and what it means to seek moral grounding in a rapidly shifting world.This episode invites us to ask: When has religion truly been good? And can it be good again? As James Baldwin once said, “Not everything that is faced can be changed, but nothing can be changed until it is faced.” SHOW NOTESSupport the showBecome a Patron - Click on the link to learn how you can become a Patron of the show.

The Renewing is a podcast about resisting what deforms us and returning to what makes us whole. Inspired by Romans 12:2, it's a space to question the patterns we've inherited—hustle, disconnection, exhaustion—and imagine what healing might look like instead. Through honest conversations and deep listening, host Brent Levy explores the sacred, slow work of renewal—for ourselves, our communities, and the world.This EpisodeWhat happens when the faith you inherited no longer fits, yet something sacred still lingers? In this episode, Brent sits down with writer and creative Lauren Cibene, whose debut book, Tiger in a Lifeboat, explores deconstruction, travel, and the slow, surprising reconstruction that follows. Together, they discuss what it means to witness rather than persuade, how grief and unlearning are essential parts of healing, and why the red letters of Jesus keep drawing Lauren back.You'll hear about the holiness of hospitality, the healing power of presence, and the sacred invitation to trust yourself again.

Two full years have passed. Joseph remains in prison, forgotten by the cupbearer whose dream he interpreted. But God's timing is perfect. Then, the most powerful ruler on the planet is disturbed twice by strange dreams. When Pharaoh's dreams baffle all of Egypt's wise men, the cupbearer finally remembers Joseph! Joseph is hastily brought from the dungeon, but he deflects any personal glory: "It is not in me; God will give Pharaoh a favorable answer." In these dreams, God reveals seven years of plenty followed by seven years of devastating famine, and through Joseph, He provides the wisdom to save not just Egypt, but the surrounding nations, including his own family.     The Rev. John Shank, pastor of Trinity Lutheran Church in Edwardsville, IL, joins the Rev. Dr. Phil Booe to study Genesis 41:1-36.  To learn more about Trinity, visit trinitylutheranministries.org.

What happens when cultural ideology reshapes how we read the Bible—especially when it comes to sexuality and identity?In this compelling conversation, Tim Barnett—apologist, speaker, and co-author (alongside Alisa Childers) of The Deconstruction of Christianity: What It Is, Why It's Destructive, and How to Respond—joins us to unpack the growing trend of deconstruction today.
