Parenting Deconstructed: Navigating Your Spiritual Evolution Without Leaving Your Family Behind
Contributing Author
After experiencing an extreme makeover of their faith, Jason and Brandi Elam found themselves wondering if their fear-based parenting methods might need to evolve as well. They reached out to several brilliant friends who had experience parenting through their own faith deconstruction and invited them to write about their journeys. These contributions offer hope and hard-fought wisdom for weary parents desperately trying to forge real connections with their kids before time runs out and the babies fly the nest.
"The way we care for children is often missing in our conversations about deconstruction, when it is one of the most important things to talk about. Because so much of our spiritual formation is shaped by our childhood, it is critical we fold the discourse on deconstruction into parenting. I'm thankful for the stories in this book that are doing just that."
