Are you looking for a way forward?
- Struggling with a faith that no longer seems right?
- Real doubts about God or Bible?
- Science has made christian belief unbelievable?
- Or maybe your faith is strong but you have unanswered questions.
You’re not alone.
And maybe you’re in the right place here.
Doubt can be the doorway to new understandings
Helps us to think in new ways.
Letting go of things we can no longer believe.
Leaving space to reconstruct our faith around reasonable beliefs we can hold with confidence and integrity.
I’ve been thinking about these issues for a while
I’ve read a lot – authors who know their stuff.
Perhaps something I’ve learnt will spark a new insight for you.
See what you think.
The big questions
Some questions loom large when you’re struggling with your faith.
- How can I deal with these feelings of confusion and uncertainty? How can I ever have faith again?
- What’s God really like? If he’s loving, why does bad stuff happen?
- Could Jesus really have been God on earth? How can we understand him?
- The Bible is a jumble, a puzzle. So much love, so much terror. How can we understand it and gain from it?
I’ve struggled with questions like these for years. I’d love to share with you some of the insights I’ve stumbled across.
I believe answering these questions leads to a renewed and satisfying faith.
I hope you’ll find something useful here.
All this and more
Faith deconstruction …. and reconstruction
Are you feeling like the christian faith you once believed is coming apart? Here’s some ideas on ways to recover from trauma, review what you believe and start to build back better.
Faith for the future
Want to work out if there are good reasons to keep on believing, or to renew your understanding of faith in Jesus as you go forward? Start here.
Jesus & God
Christian beliefs about Jesus and God are core to the faith. Yet both Jesus and God are often misunderstood by Christians.
The Bible
The Bible is an essential source for the christian faith. Yet it is also the cause of many difficulties. But the difficulties can be resolved.
Hard questions
Some aspects of what many Christians believe are hard to accept. They seem cruel, or unloving or out of date. Can we let these ideas go?
