Testimony

Since watching Shiny Happy People, I've gone down a bit of a fundie rabbit hole. I've been binging the Leaving Eden podcast and it's been fascinating. So when I read an interview with Jon Ward, I knew I'd want to read this book.

It's really interesting. It's as much about his deconversion as about the failures of Evangelicalism; they're so entwined in many ways. Ward's being brought up to take over in his church, and then working in journalism for decades, makes him the perfect person to talk about how this (gestures around) all happened. Really interesting stuff.

This was incredible. I'm learning to live in the nuances of faith and I thought this memoir was really really well done.
