Writing this book put me in some dangerous, irreverent territory. I was surprised to find Christ there.After countless hours of interviews with people who have deconstructed Christianity, Preston Ulmer found that many were told they weren't Christian before they chose to leave their faith.Exiled before exiting.Pushed out for wrestling.Called "trouble" for calling out the tension.If you look closely, you'll find that Jesus lived out his faith this way too, deconstructing the parts of religion that we had gotten wrong in order to portray God more clearly. Some people loved him for it. Others crucified him. And his followers are experiencing similar reactions today.So how do we relate to friends and family who have become skeptical of beliefs they were taught in church? In this case, we renew our minds, which might include rethinking everything we thought we knew for the sake of the unconvinced (Romans 12:2). Are you ready to deconstruct your faith and discover Jesus?

When it comes to the Bible, questions can make us anxious.Questioning God or God's Word can feel like disloyalty; waiting for answers can feel like being forgotten.But what if our questions could be good for our faith? What if the solution to our doubts isn't fewer questions but more questions? Better questions? We tend to approach the Bible from a modern, Western perspective, but what we find in the Scriptures is an inspired conversation from a different time and place. Better questions come from the Bible out--from the vantage points of the people we meet in the pages of Scripture and the God who meets them where they are.In Asking Better Questions of the Bible, Marty Solomon points us to the beauty and wonder and hope contained in the Scriptures. God, we discover, invites our questions and can be trusted with our doubts. When we come to God and God's Word with curiosity, we leave satisfied and at the same time craving more as we discover a more profound understanding of what God is inviting us to become.
