Faith After Deconstruction (FAD) Interest Meeting – October 2 [Online]
Do you come from a fundamentalist or evangelical background? Have you had to deconstruct and reconstruct your faith? This is the group for you! We’ll be holding an interest meeting on Zoom (link in email) on Friday, October 2 at 11 a.m. CT. Our first meeting will be mostly introductions, but think about these questions ahead of time: What does a deconstructed or reconstructed faith look like to you? What has your journey been like? This group is meant to be a safe space for folks to talk about our faith stories and how they’ve changed—or not changed—throughout our lives. For more information, contact Joellen Barak at jbarak001@luthersem.edu.
