They talk about the process of deconstructing their beliefs and the fear and uncertainty that comes with it. In the first half of the conversation, the guys touch on themes from Jeff’s book, Saints in the Arms of a Happy God. They discuss topics such as grace, legalism, pain, leaving and finding Jesus, and the tight-knit community of like-minded individuals.<p style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px 0px 1em; border: 0px; outline: 0px; font-size: 15px; text-size-adjust: 100%; vertical-align: baseline; background-image: initial; background-position: initial; background-size: initial; background-repeat: initial; background-attachment: initial; background-origin: initial; background-clip: initial; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: &quot;Open Sans&quot;, Helvetica, Arial, Lucida, sans-serif;">In the second half of the conversation, they discuss Jeff’s book, The Atheistic Theist: Why There is No God and You Should Follow Him. Jeff shares how atheism was part of Jeff’s journey to a deeper understanding of faith.

Jeff Turner / The Atheistic Theist

“Sin” in the New Testament is usually the Greek word “hamartia,” which is normally defined as “missing the mark,” as in “not hitting the bull’s-eye” in a target.&nbsp;During the offertory this past weekend, we offered our sins. To facilitate that, I asked each worshipper to fill out a “My Life Scorecard.” In the left-hand column, we listed our goals. In the middle column, we judged ourselves and gave ourselves a grade. In the right-hand column, we plotted our success on a target that was printed on each card, revealing the size of our sin.&nbsp;As we filled out the scorecard, the worship team played that old song “The Lord of the Dance.” We realized that it’s hard to dance while filling out the “My Life Scorecard,” and of course it’s hard to fill out the card while dancing. With our goals, we become a “law unto ourselves.” The Law is like dance steps, and as long as you’re practicing dance steps, you’re not dancing.
