Finding Jesus Through Doubt and Deconstruction - Tommy Preson Phillips

Deconstruction has become one of the most polarizing conversations in Christianity, but many Christians are leaving church because the faith they inherited didn’t produce good fruit. Tommy Preson Phillips, musician, pastor, and co-author of Invisible Jesus, is on Christianity Without Compromise with host Jake Doberenz to discuss how doubt, science, church culture, and evangelical certainty pushed him into deconstruction while ultimately deepening his commitment to Jesus. Tommy explains why the teachings of Jesus remain compelling even after institutional Christianity disappoints people, why the fruit of a doctrine matters more than ideological certainty, and how communities centered on love, humility, and honesty may become the future of the church.Important Links:Invisible Jesus by Scott McKnight and Tommy Preson Phillips - https://amzn.to/4dohVMZ (affiliate)Tommy Preson Phillips Substack - https://tommypresonphillips.substack.comWatermark Church Tampa - https://www.watermarktampa.comPreson Phillips music - http://presonphillips.comSurprise the World by Michael Frost - https://amzn.to/4dgQEfa (affiliate)Tommy Preson Phillips is a pastor, musician, songwriter, and co-author of Invisible Jesus with Scott McKnight.
