In Beyond the Binary of Deconstruction and Reconstruction Part Three, the Irencast crew try desperately to come up with suitable metaphors for the ‘Dark Night of the Soul’ stage in deconstruction. Since each host had such different experiences the task becomes difficult, which leads to a beautiful discussion on why these moments cannot be boiled down to a formula.
We all experience our faith journey differently, and while there are some commonalities, we cannot prescribe a specific way out for any one person. Sometimes we need to sit, listen and just experience certain moments in life. This conversation is emblematic of that truth.
The episode ends with the return of an old segment, formerly known as Jesus or Jay-Z. Rebranded as Friday Night or Sunday Morning. Each host shares some song lyrics that could be taken as either ‘Christian’ or ‘secular’. The other hosts decide where they stand and per usual the segment degrades into some good old fashion banter.
