Description

Deconstruction is a journey many are experiencing.

The dichotomy of natural and supernatural is outdated.

Prayer should be seen as cooperation with God.

God's omnipotence is often misunderstood.

Selective miracles create distrust in God.

Enchantment in the world is often overlooked.

Philosophy and theology should work together.

Resurrection narratives can be reinterpreted.

Life after death may involve continued subjective experience.

Trust in God can be rebuilt through understanding God's nature.
