The Impact of Personal Experience on Faith
A significant experience in college led to a profound examination of personal beliefs, particularly regarding the Bible's trustworthiness. This process of questioning and reflection, described as a form of deconstruction, encouraged a deeper understanding of faith. The motivation to explore these existential questions came from a strong foundational upbringing in a Christian household, making the inquiry feel essential rather than optional. Ultimately, this journey solidified her belief in the Bible as the word of God, influencing the mission of the Jude 3 Project to help others understand their beliefs and the rationale behind them.
