I'm so excited to release my book baby into the world!!!

For all of my friends who have done the hard work of deconstruction and are in the messy middle of reconstruction or don't know how to start your reconstruction...

This is the resource for you!

In Breathing Again: Finding Peace While Navigating Faith Reconstruction, I share how I journeyed from a complete faith deconstruction to a healthy faith reconstruction where I can breathe freely in peace and truth.

Each chapter illustrates a different aspect of my journey with actionable steps for you to take on your own journey. At the end of each chapter, you'll find reflections, scripture, and honest prayers.

Praise for Breathing Again

"I’ve always said that there’s only one way to deconstruct, and that’s your way! I love Kristen Neighbarger’s personal, honest and thorough account of her own deconstruction because it helps the rest of us who are experiencing it feel normal. This is a natural, healthy, and necessary journey we call spiritual growth. If you want another angle on how deconstruction is done, read this book."

--David Hayward, aka, NakedPastor, author of “The Lasting Supper: Letters for Deconstruction”

"For anyone deconstructing and reconstructing their faith, Breathing Again

will quite literally be a breath of fresh air. Writing gently with personal stories, Kristen validates her readers, gives them permission to be on their faith journey, and lets them know that they are not alone."

--Christy Lynne Wood: Seeking Jesus in the Awkward Middle Way and author of

Religious Rebels

When it comes to the Christian faith, most of us face the realization that the foundational beliefs we’ve always assumed to be true are not as faultless as we once believed.
By closely examining God’s Word, Kristen guides her readers through the process of deconstructing faulty beliefs and building renewed foundations.
This book is a breath of fresh air for anyone who has felt stifled by the rules of Christianity, hurt by the church, or disillusioned by faith.

--Stacey Pardoe, author of Lean Into Grace: Let God’s Grace Heal Your Heart, Refresh Your Soul, and Set You Free)

In Breathing Again, Kristen Neighbarger courageously shares her raw and relatable journey of faith deconstruction and reconstruction. With transparency, vulnerability, and insight, she guides readers through the often painful process of examining the difference between what’s truly God-ordained and what’s merely culture-driven. “Breathing Again” is a beautiful example of unraveling religious beliefs, church hurts, and spiritual trauma — and emerging on the other side with a renewed faith foundation.

--Cortney Farmer, Co-Founder and Head Writer at The Soft Never

Breathing Again is a must-read to help those who are healing from past church trauma. Hope and encouragement flow from the pages as Kristen shares her experiences, giving applicable steps to achieve healing while moving closer to God. This book brought multiple “me too” moments, encouraging me to pursue healing from those past hurts.
