Doubters Welcome

I've doubted and deconstructed faith... but I'm still following Jesus! This is a story about pain, healing, deconstruction, and reconstruction. Doubting is difficult, but I know from experience that there is a way back to confident belief. Let me tell you about it. Truth Snack is about journeying with doubting Christians toward confident faith. I hope this episode can be a little truth s...

Big life decisions can spark and intense seeking of God and his will. And when we hear nothing in response, it can make us wonder if God is with us (or there at all). Because of that, I knew I wanted to talk about "God's will" as part of this year's exploring of encounter with God. When my friend, Steph, reached out to tell me a Truth Snack series had helped her while discernin...

If I had 30 minutes to tell doubting Christians what to expect on their journey through doubt, I would tell them this story from 1 Kings 19! And then I would tell them they don't have to make that journey alone. I wish every doubter knew this Bible story. It's total honesty,  paired with hope, has helped me so much on my journey through doubt, and I believe it will help you too. Enjoy! S...

How do we make sense of divine destruction in the Bible? What distortions do we bring to the Bible that make it hard to understand? If the Bible is so complicated, why follow Jesus? In this episode I talk with my friend Jonny who is studying the Old Testament in pursuit of a PhD. In particular, he’s studying stories of divine destruction in the Old Testament— that’s right, he’s chosen to study the...

I’m asking my mentors, "How do you discern God’s voice?" In this series, Truth Snack is exploring how encounters with God can anchor our faith during times of doubt. Kerry shares some brilliant theological insights and, on top of that, offers a really accessible way to think about hearing God “in the normal of every day.” One thing I love about Kerry is that we’re such different personal...

How do we recognize God's voice? I sat down with mentors of mine to ask them that question.  Each conversation had stories of God speaking and so much wisdom on how we can all discern God's voice. The discussions were too good not to share in full, so enjoy! This podcast aims to help doubting Christians become #AdventurousTruthSeekers so they can have #ConfidentFaith.  Send a Voice Note...
