Description

A Recipe for Disaster: Four Ways Churches and Parents Prepare Individuals to Lose Their Faith and How They Can Instill a Faith That Endures by John Marriott. The statistics are clear: record numbers of individuals who once identified as Christians are now deconverting from the faith. But why is this happening, and what can be done to prevent it? This book seeks to answer these questions by examining the four ways churches and parents unwittingly contribute to the deconversion process. These methods include over-preparation, under-preparation, ill-preparation, and painfully preparation. The author argues that these approaches set individuals up for a crisis of faith that often leads to the loss of faith altogether. In response, A Recipe for Disaster offers four alternative methods of preparation designed to instill lifelong faith. By understanding how churches and parents can prepare individuals in a more effective way, readers can help prevent deconversion and foster a deeper, more enduring faith.
