Deconstruction, Reconstruction, & Being Called to Bless
We allknow about the slow decline of Mainline Protestantism. Over the years, the once-dominantdenominations have declined significantly in numbers.

“While All three Abrahamic religions offer a linear view of reality, in that all three assume that God is to be found not in the past but in the present and the future, all three traditions look back to founding principles that are enshrined in sacred texts.

Then we can proceed faithfully into the future, while we remain anchored in those founding visions present in our sacred texts.”
