Considering atheism? Unsure about your faith? Call 1-184-I-DOUBT-IT.

The 24-hour crisis hotline for those considering leaving their faith is operated byRecovering From Religion, a Kansas City, Mo.-based nonprofit that aids those transitioning out of faith.

When people are reconsidering the role religion plays in their lives, they risk losing their families, their spouses, their jobs, said Sarah Morehead,executive director of Recovering From Religion. These people are isolated, excluded, shunned. It rocks these people to the bottom of their hearts. It is heartbreaking.

Hotline volunteers will not advocate leaving religion for atheism, Kimberly Winston writes for the Religion News Service, but will offer support and resources.

The hotline's motto is: When faith is on the line, so are we.
