How to analyze and reevaluate your Christian beliefs and
experiences in the church while keeping the core of your faith
intact. The number of Christians leaving the church today is
significant. Many feel there is no place for them within the
faith—they no longer feel at home in their church community or
tradition. For various reasons, they are unsettled by the version
of Christianity they've inherited. Stripping away the nonessential
aspects of Christianity, Sean McDowell and John Marriott will help
you navigate the jarring questions and cultural challenges that
lead many to walk away from the faith. You'll come to recognize
that there are other ways Christians throughout history have
understood what faithfulness to Jesus looks like. Each chapter
provides practical advice on how to disassemble, rethink, and
reassemble beliefs that are truly Christian and culturally and
personally relevant. You'll learn how you can continue to seek an
authentic faith by: Establishing Jesus and his teachings as the
foundation. Utilizing the creeds as boundary markers of what is
essential. Seeing the entire Bible as a truthful revelation from
God. Seeing Christianity as a historic and global tradition that
encompasses diverse communities and viewpoints. Â The authors
of this book can personally identify with the process of
disillusionment that many young believers go through. They wrote
Set Adrift as people who had to navigate their own way back through
the fog of deconstruction. They wrote it to offer their own
personal suggestions for what to do when you're not sure what to
believe anymore.
