Using Deconstruction
to Live with Integrity after
Religious Trauma
Questioning your beliefs isn’t destruction—it’s growth.
we'll survey how to...
Recognize the importance of building a personal bridge from religious trauma toward healing by exploring your own journey and growth.
Embrace the ongoing nature of deconstruction—viewing it as a continual process, not a one-time event.
Name and challenge beliefs and ideas that have shaped your worldview; identify both the teachers and roots behind those beliefs.
Investigate the outcomes (fruits) of systems or beliefs in your life, especially where there’s a disconnect between promise and reality.
Allow yourself to question and hold multiple truths at once, stepping away from black-and-white thinking toward nuance and the spectrum.
Practice recommending only those beliefs and practices you would genuinely offer to someone vulnerable, fostering a culture of genuine integrity over performative adherence.
