Summary of Rachel Held Evans's Faith Unraveled

Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. . Sample Book Insights:. #1 I always looked up to my father with a sense of reverent awe. I imagined that he and God had a lot in common, and that they subscribed to the same magazines and wore similar shoes.. #2 I grew up as a Christian, and I was taught to love and accept others who were different from me, which led me to be a liberal. I was disappointed when I learned that 85 percent of Americans identify themselves as Christians, because it made the whole thing less dramatic and sexy.. #3 I was an evangelical Christian from fourth grade onward. I knew so much about defending the existence of God that I used the same apologetic strategies to defend the existence of Santa Claus to my increasingly skeptical classmates.. #4 I had severe eczema as a child, and I would always have doubts about God when my skin flared up. I would scratch until I bled, and then hide under long sleeves and pants to avoid gym class.
