This publication is named, “Deconstructionology with Jim Palmer”. Yes, it’s a word I made up. The term deconstruction means to disassemble something into its separate parts in order to understand it more deeply and meaningfully. The lived human experience is filled with all kinds of tensions, contradictions, nuances, lessons and complexities, which may not be apparent on the surface or through the lens through which we most familiarly see the world.

As a public philosopher, theologian, religious trauma counselor and promoter of existential health, I often deconstruct life’s biggest questions, and issues of ultimate significance. Whatever your religious, spiritual or philosophical beliefs, they relate to every aspect of our lives. As a published author and founder of the Center for Non-Religious Spirituality, I especially connect with nones, free-thinkers and all those interested in becoming more profound human beings.
