Whether you feel like you're up the creek without a paddle when it comes to faith, or if people you love have lost their bearings, this book is for you.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWONDERING WHAT ALL THE 'DECONSTRUCTION' TALK IS ALL ABOUT?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book neither condemns nor condones the trend of those deconstructing their faith. It seeks to describe and document the Canadian \"deconstructing faith\" scene while also providing a theological and sociological frame through which to understand it. Provocative, critical, fair, and focused on Canadian concerns, this book opens a window of well-researched appraisal.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\"If the Sermon on the Mount were written today, it might say: We are blessed when we have more questions than answers. We are even blessed when the Church has let us down, when life tips our canoe, when we're just treading water, when we have no one to talk to, when we run out of hope, when our faith is Undone.\"\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\u003cli\u003eBlessed are the Undone, Introduction, Reitsma Bick \u0026amp; Schuurman\u003c\/li\u003e\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Angela Reitsma Bick,Peter Schuurman\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 099530548X\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780995305489\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e New Leaf Network Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/17\/2024\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 328\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.84lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 5.50w x 0.69d","brand":"Angela Reitsma Bick","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48520230011135,"sku":"9780995305489","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_ac70385f-c753-4c4c-b07c-be0e8c82f196.jpg?v=1778741514","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/blessed-are-the-undone-angela-reitsma-bick-9780995305489","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
