How affected individual's relationship to family and a religious community at an exit : A qualitative study based onfive persons´ experience (English)
Abstract [sv]

Studien fokuserar på personer som lämnat något av de klassiska trossamfunden. Även om utträdet sker utifrån den egna övertygelsen, innebär det oftast en omvälvning att lämna för att söka ny identitet och kontext. Syftet är att undersöka hur individens relation till familj och trossamfund påverkats vid ett utträde. Fem personer som lämnat sitt trossamfund intervjuades med hjälp av semistrukturerade, kvalitativa djupintervjuer. Exitprocessen kan ses som ett avhopp från av en roll som varit central för individens självidentitet. I skapandet av en ny roll finns fragment av gamla rollen kvar med in i den nya identiteten, tillsammans formar dessa en ex-roll. Studiens resultat visar att det fanns en tydlig åtskillnad mellan hur tro kommunicerades i församling och inom familjesystemet. Trots att förkunnelsen påverkade både personlig livsstil och familjestruktur var detta inget som barn och föräldrar samtalade om. Resultatet visar även att informanterna intog en ex-roll i fråga om kulturkrock mellan det icke-kristna och en auktoritär gudsbild, vilket ledde fram till att de slutligen lämnade trossamfundet. I slutdiskussionen framkommer att den kristna tron kan fortsätta vara av betydelse i en ex-roll, även om den blivit mer komplicerad. Den gudsbild som informanterna erhållit kan hänga samman med relationen till föräldrarna och deras anknytning.

Abstract [en]

This study focuses on people who have left one of the classic church denominations. Even if the departure is based on their individual beliefs, it usually involves an upheaval to seek a new identity and context. The intention of the study is to explore how the individual's relationship to family and faith communities was affected by the exit. Five people who left their church communities were interviewed using semi-structured qualitative interviews.

Exitprocess can be seen as a left of a role that has been central to the individual's self-identity. In a new identity the creation of a new role are fragments of the old role left into the new identity that together form an ex-roll. The study results show that there was a clear distinction between how the faith was communicated in the congregation and within the family system. Although the preaching affected both personal lifestyle and family structure it was not discussed between children and parents. The result also shows that the respondents took an ex-role in the cultural clash between the non-Christian and authoritarian image of God, which led to the conclusion that they finally left the community. In the discussion, it appears that the Christian faith can continue to be of importance in an ex-roll, although it has become more complicated. The image of God as informants received may be related to the relationship with the parents and their extension.
