Perhaps the most difficult aspect of faith is how it changes through our lives. Sometimes life experiences can call us to question things we’ve always held true. Sometimes beliefs or practices that we’ve always found important begin to feel different--empty even. Living within the tension of an evolving faith can be unbearable at times. Join Rev. Ryan for weeks of honest conversations about how to reevaluate beliefs, deconstruct them, and reconstruct them. Having a faith that evolves can be difficult, but together we can faithfully stumble forward.
