The creator of the popular Formerly Fundie blog on Patheos explains
how the "American Christianity" we are currently taught is actually
a fear-saturated distortion of biblical faith. Benjamin L. Corey
thought he was suffering a crisis of faith, but it turned out to be
a spiritual awakening. Corey became aware that the constant fear of
hell and judgment that defined his Christian faith was out of sync
with the idea that God acts from love, and promises to deliver us
from fear. In the wake of this realization came newfound
insights-from reading the Bible to re-examining American life and
the church's role in the wider world. Corey learned that what he
had been taught was a distorted version of Christianity that was
not only untrue but caused real spiritual harm. He also discovered
that he wasn't alone. Many Christians are yearning to distinguish
between the Christianity that has become a rigid American civil
religion and the authentic Christian faith embodied in Jesus. As he
recounts his own spiritual journey, Corey offers a powerful and
inspiring message of hope for every Christian increasingly
frustrated with the church today. Do not be discouraged, he assures
them. You do not need to give up your faith; you can rediscover the
reality of a vibrant Christianity that delivers us from fear and
inspires and guides us all today.
