Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Disfellowshipped but Believing is a memoir that explores what happens when faith survives the loss of organized religion. After spending more than two decades devoted to a strict Judeo-Christian church, Phil Blood found himself suddenly disfellowshipped, rejected by the very community that had shaped his beliefs. Stripped of his religious identity, enduring the collapse of his marriage, and forced to rebuild his life from the ground up, he began an honest search for truth that would redefine his understanding of God, faith, and humanity.Rather than abandoning Christianity, Blood questioned long-held assumptions and sought answers beyond institutional doctrine. His journey led him through churches, psychology, philosophy, personal relationships, and everyday life, ultimately revealing a faith rooted not in rules but in love, integrity, mercy, and personal responsibility.Throughout the book, the author examines essential spiritual principles including God, purpose, life, justice, honesty, discipline, hope, and faith. He reflects on how prejudice, fear, and rigid religious traditions shaped his thinking before confronting those beliefs through real-life experiences, particularly within his own blended family. These moments challenged him to see people through compassion instead of judgment and transformed his understanding of what it truly means to follow Christ.Part memoir and part spiritual reflection, Dis-fellowshipped but Believing encourages readers to ask difficult questions without abandoning faith. It offers reassurance to anyone who has experienced church hurt, spiritual confusion, or the painful tension between religious institutions and personal conviction.Honest, thoughtful, and deeply reflective, this book reminds readers that losing a church does not necessarily mean losing God. Sometimes the greatest spiritual growth begins where certainty ends.
