How do Christians lose their faith? What’s the process that brings people out of a religious upbringing and into agnosticism, or even atheism? What causes young people to turn from the faith of their parents? And, an equally important question, what happens in the heart and mind of someone who later returns to the Faith? How does that happen, and how can we help it along as Christians?

Shane Morris talked with someone who has seen both sides of this process. Someone who has been “there and back again,” as it were, someone who has gone from faith to scornful unbelief and then back to orthodox faith.
