Olivia Jackson on '(Un)Certain: a Collective Memoir of Deconstructing Faith'

Olivia Jackson lives on the side of a windswept hill with two dogs. After spending most of her life in and around evangelical contexts, including nearly 15 years working for mission agencies in the UK and overseas, Olivia has been deconstructing her faith for the past few years. This eventually led her to seeking out the stories and experiences of others, through an online survey with over 400 respondents followed by in-depth interviews with 140 of them. The culmination of this storytelling process is her recent book '(Un)Certain: a Collective Memoir of Deconstructing Faith.'Olivia joins me for a conversation about what she learned from diving deep into deconstruction, not just as a personal process, but as a pattern occurring across a vast Christian denominations, institutions and movements. We explore the common themes that spark this journey and the various pathways it can lead to.Want to reach out and let us know your thoughts or suggestions for the show?
