Podcasts about dealing with doubt

Doubt is a natural part of faith that even Jesus' disciples experienced. Understanding the difference between faith and belief is crucial - belief is intellectual acceptance, while faith involves trust and commitment. Through Thomas's story, we learn that expressing doubt doesn't indicate weak faith. The key to handling doubt is bringing it directly to Jesus, understanding that doubt doesn't disqualify us from faith, and allowing uncertainties to become catalysts for stronger spiritual growth. Faith isn't about the absence of doubt, but rather the means to push through it.

Don't Let Doubt Define or Defeat You | Restored & Sent Have you ever felt like your questions and doubts disqualify you from faith? You're not alone. The reality is that doubt is something virtually all Christians experience at some point in their faith journey. We'll challenge the one-dimensional view of "Doubting Thomas" by revealing six dimensions of his faith journey that are often overlooked. Through Thomas's story in the Gospel of John, we discover a disciple who was: 1. Willing to Sacrifice - When others hesitated to follow Jesus into danger, Thomas boldly declared, "Let us also go that we may die with him" (John 11:16) 2. Prepared to Follow - Even when uncertain of the destination, Thomas honestly asked questions to better understand and follow Jesus 3. Fully Honest - Rather than pretending to believe, Thomas expressed his doubts openly 4. Supported with Evidence - Jesus didn't rebuke Thomas for his questions but provided the evidence he needed 5. Stronger Than He Gets Credit For - Thomas made one of the strongest confessions of faith in scripture: "My Lord and my God!" 6. A Faith That Spreads to Others - Thomas's journey from doubt to conviction continues to help countless believers You'll walk away with a new perspective to never allow a season of doubt to limit your future walk with and effectiveness for Jesus. God is big enough to handle your questions and has given us all the evidence we need. Whether you're currently wrestling with questions or walking alongside someone who is, this message offers practical hope that doubt can be a doorway to deeper belief rather than a dead end.

Have you ever found yourself wrestling with questions about your faith? Wondering if God is still near, still listening, still good? If so, I want you to know that you’re not alone. This week on The Love Offering podcast, I talked with Niki Hardy about her book, God, Can We Chat? It’s an honest, refreshing, and grace-filled invitation to bring our doubts and questions to God—without fear, shame, or pretending we have it all together. So often, we think our faith is only strong if we never question or waver. But Niki reminds us that God isn’t afraid of our questions—He welcomes them. Rather than weakening our faith, honest conversations with God can deepen and strengthen it. If you’re in a season where faith feels hard, where you feel distant from God or unsure of what you believe, I encourage you to tune in. You don’t have to have all the answers to come to Him—He asks that you come. I’d love to hear—have you ever had a “chat” with God that changed your perspective? Hit reply and let me know. I’m always grateful to walk this journey of faith with you.

How do Christians deal with doubt? This is a common issue for believers. But we must understand that faith is not the absence of doubt. Rather, faith is unbelief kept silent. In Genesis 15, Abraham's doubts are addressed. 

Doubt is often a stepping stone on the road to a secure faith. We've all had our doubts; it's what we do with those doubts that matters. Do we give up, take our ball, and go home? Or do we find unshakable reasons that faith in God is the best worldview possible? Today let's look at the rocky journey of Thomas's struggle between faith and doubt. Perhaps we'll see ourselves in it.I. ConfidenceII. TurbulenceIII. DistanceIV. EvidenceV. PenitenceVI. PermanenceTalk with God: Meditate on 1 Peter 1:8-9 and thank the Lord for the peace and confidence we have in our salvation, so we can “rejoice with joy inexpressible” (v. 8).Talk with others: If you're wrestling with a doubt or difficult question, ask a mentor or pastor for help in navigating that struggle.Talk with kids: How does God show He keeps His promises in this Bible story?

Rabbi Saadia Gaon's sefer Emunot V'Deot (Book of Beliefs and Opinions) innovated the genre of Jewish philosophy. Long before Rabbi Yehuda HaLevi and the Rambam, R. Saadia paved the road for viewing Jewish principles through a lens of classic Greek philosophy, the science of his time, and is justifiably where Jewish philosophy begins. Join ⁠Rabbi Daniel Korobkin⁠ as he explores this important, monumental work, tracing the differences in approach between R.

Over the years I have talked with a steady stream of people who sheepishly admit that they are wrestling with doubts about God. Even as they are telling me this, they frequently drop their voice to the level of a whisper, afraid that others might hear their confession. Do good Christians ever have doubts about their faith? Is it wrong for people to ask hard questions or even be skeptical of some of the claims people make about spiritual experiences? One truth we discover from this event in the life of John the Baptist is that even the strongest of believers can be shaken in their faith, and that God is neither surprised nor angry with us when these shadowy seasons come. In fact, He wants us to bring our doubts to Him because He alone can give the insight and comfort we need. So the issue is not so much whether or not we will have doubts assail our faith in God, but how we handle those doubts when they come. John the Baptist was a great prophet and highly regarded by God, yet he grew disappointed in God and Jesus. Let's let him show us how to handle doubt.

Pastor Matt challenges us with a message that doubt can steal our hope and create problems for us we don't realize can come from it.
