Religious deconstruction is the process of critically examining and questioning the beliefs, practices, and narratives of a particular faith. This often involves analyzing the historical, cultural, and social contexts that shape religious traditions, leading individuals to reassess their understanding of spirituality and doctrine. Many people engage in religious deconstruction when they encounter doubts or conflicts between their beliefs and personal experiences. This journey can lead to a redefined faith, a shift towards secularism, or the adoption of new spiritual perspectives, as individuals seek authenticity and meaning in their beliefs, often influenced by figures like Peter Enns or movements such as progressive Christianity.
