Roundtable: Discouraged by Deconstruction
Your friend who once loved Jesus is struggling to keep the faith. He or she has written off parts of the Bible, or stopped going to church, or is excusing sin as not a big deal. All of us go through seasons of doubt, but how should you respond when you see someone drifting away from biblical truth and Christian community?

Ladies, we dished out friendship ideas for you last week!
