Show Notes

Justin and Stephen talk about their own experiences of deconstruction of faith, including how the process of dismantling elements of their Christianity has helped them to start to see Jesus more clearly. They look for useful metaphors for the process of dismantling broken parts of their belief system and talk about the particular risks and opportunities they have as profs. Justin and Stephen also discuss dissertation, teaching, Y2K, apocalyptic moments, and good coffee. We have show notes for you at profsinrooms.com and bonus material on Patreon!
