More DescriptionAs a youth director in the local church for nearly 40 years, I had the fun of mentoring hundreds of young people. We went camping and hiking together and shared dozens of campfire chats. During the recent decline of the church empire in America I started wondering where my former "church kids" were in their faith. Were they deconstructing like so many across our nation? I took to Facebook messenger to reconnect with them and find out. This book summarizes my findings, and yes, some have "fallen away". I am sharing their personal stories and mine; some of them are my own kids. This is what spiritual deconstruction looks like in person. No statistics; I am not a pollster. This is what real life looks like in post-church America.
