• “Many platforms call themselves “safe spaces” for Christians to deconstruct, but they aren’t (filled with unbelief/cynicism/rage)”
• “Some questions seek answers, where other questions seek exits, some seek truth, and some seek to avoid truth”
A Christian who deconstructs is someone courageously reexamining their beliefs, traditions, and assumptions about faith—often disentangling genuine trust in Jesus from cultural baggage, inherited doctrines, or harmful systems—in order to rediscover a more authentic, life-giving, and personally grounded relationship with God.
