The primary purpose of this journal is to act as a guide in heightening your awareness of why you believe what you believe, how you came to your current conception of a higher power, and understanding how your past experiences have impacted your belief system. I want to be very clear that this journal is not to be used as some sort of gatekeeping tool for those with a specific shared experience. This book is for everyone. Full stop. . I have spent the past six years deconstructing my faith and a large part of that, especially in the beginning, was done blindly. Don't get me wrong, earning a Master of Divinity has afforded me a multitude of privileges that many others do not have when they begin deconstructing their own religious belief system. Knowing how to navigate through the original scriptural languages, theological libraries, etc. have definitely given me a head start. In 2015, after walking away from full time pastoral ministry, I had zero resources to support me in the process of deconstructing my religious belief system. Instead of seminary colleagues or other clergy members, it was the people in my 12-step recovery program that offered me stability and reassurance. Within the rooms of recovery, the act of borrowing someone else's higher power is as common as going into Target for toothpaste and leaving with $137.64 of who knows what. So that's what I did. I took the suggestion of borrowing the concept of God that rang true for a handful of my friends in recovery. When nothing seemed to "click" I went on to exploring Atheism and then camped out for awhile in Agnosticism. As time passed, I was able to tolerate the questions, "What do I REALLY believe?" and "Does it even matter?" I then began researching theologians that fell outside of my conservative theological training and learned to embrace an un-boundaried conception of God. I recognize that this journal will not be for everyone. For some, it may affirm what you already believe. If that's your experience, may the time you spend reflecting over the next thirty days bring a new depth of assurance to what already resides within you. I can imagine there will be those of you who purchased or were given this journal and are expecting it to fix or resolve the frustration, questions, doubts, or confusion you've been living with. To you I would like to offer this encouragement: it will take as long as it takes, and that is okay. Whether you find yourself completely deconstructing your belief system or you are longing to be able to articulate why you believe what you believe, increasing your level of tolerance with unpleasant emotions and/or feelings will be vital. My ultimate hope will be satisfied if a handful of individuals find a sliver of clarity within these pages. Remember, although it may feel as if you have been swallowed up into a void of darkness with no exit or light to guide you, it is you who is the light.…
