Deconstruction

I got to hang out with Justin, Kelly and Aiden Nygren tonight at Starbucks. In our conversation the idea of deconstruction came up. I think Aiden mentioned it.

I was thinking on my way home that deconstruction is a part of every Christians life. When we are transformed in our hearts becoming sons and daughters of God then we begin a life journey of deconstructing all the parts of our lives that are not in unity with God. It is a deconstruction toward simplicity. It is deconstructing our lives to simply follow Jesus. It is deconstructing our religion to simply following Jesus.

I like that phrase "deconstructing to simplicity".
