Ep. 24 – Blessed Are the Undone - An Exploration of Faith Deconstruction in Canada

On this episode, our guest is Peter Schuurman, who's back for his second appearance on the podcast. Peter has co-authored a new book, called Blessed Are the Undone: Testimonies of the Quiet Deconstruction of Faith in Canada. We discuss a few people's personal stories of faith deconstruction, the major factors that give rise to it, the influence of the United States on spirituality in Canada, the role of Indigenous people and Indigenous spirituality, and what reconciliation with those who have deconstructed their faith might look like for the church in the 21st century.Further Resources and Links: Blessed Are the Undone, the book: https://www.newleafnetwork.ca/blessedundoneConnect with us: Our website: www.tworiverschurch.ca By email: [email protected] Produced by Peter Szabo and Ian Van Harten
