An essential resource for navigating the waters of religious doubt and frustration, Reconstruct Your Faith follows the gut-wrenching story of a pastor’s shipwrecked faith and his pain-filled journey through deconstruction to a more vibrant faith.

In Reconstruct Your Faith, author and pastor Kevin Young re-discovers ancient spiritual practices for forming faith—which were not simply going to church, reading the Bible, and praying more, as you may have been taught.

Join him on the journey, and you might discover help and hope, like he did, in the most unlikely of places at the most unlikely of times.

"Kevin Young offers clear direction here into a path to Christian faith reconstruction through reconnection with core practices of the Early Church. Reconstruct Your Faith illustrates two important truths that post-fundamentalists (and post-evangelicals) need to remember: 1) Protestant fundamentalism was an oddly modernist intellectual cul-de-sac, and thus 2) deconstructing fundamentalism opens the door to reconnection to the ancient sources and practices of Christian faith. This book is inspiring, both as a memoir and as a path ahead."

Rev. Dr. David P. Gushee

Distinguished University Professor of Christian Ethics Mercer University

"For people in evangelical spaces who have always been (perhaps secretly?) curious about liturgical traditions, Young’s pilgrimage into liturgical, practice-based faith offers a template for fellow sojourners to reconnect with God in an ancient way. As a privileged insider in evangelical American Christianity, Young’s indictment of abusive theology – and his hope that change is possible – offers a clarion call for confession, compassion, and transformation."

Testimonial Item

The Rev. Lizzie McManus-Dail

"If you are a sincere and fulfilled Evangelical Christian, you may not think you need Reconstruct Your Faith. Similarly, if you have walked away from religion entirely, you may feel this book is for someone else, not you. But I think just about anyone - from happy churchgoer to struggling doubter to church-wounded "none" -- will find real wisdom and insight in these pages. Kevin Young tells his unique story in a way that will help you better live your unfolding story too."

"Kevin Young is a stirring stick. He is a maestro of troubling the waters and stirring things up. I sometimes wish he were stirring the other way he’s swizzling, but the church needs stirring sticks that are kind, caring, smart, and fair. After all, there was no healing at the pool of Bethesda until the waters were stirred up. Let the healing begin."

He is a graduate of Cedarville University, Dallas Theological Seminary, and Portland Seminary.
