Vox Podcast With Mike Erre

How do we stay faithful to the Jesus of the Gospels when American Christianity often looks nothing like Him? This deeply personal and reflective episode offers an honest mosaic of deconstruction stories from within the Voxology community. Mike and Tim read listener submissions about disillusionment, church trauma, and the painful cost of leaving behind institutional faith while rediscovering a more beautiful Jesus. Drawing from real-life experiences and the story of Mary losing and finding Jesus in the temple, they explore what it means to go back and find the Christ who challenges political idolatry and calls us into self-sacrificial love, not culture war victories. Key Takeaways: • Faithful Deconstruction – Personal stories shared with vulnerability show how crises of faith can actually draw us closer to the heart of Jesus rather than away from Him. • The Beauty of the Gospel – Why the real work of discipleship is immersing ourselves in the Jesus revealed in the Gospels and modeling our image of God on Him
