Pilgrim Conversations Ep. 14: Is Doubt the Enemy of Faith?
Dr. Whitfield and Pastor Sarah sit down with the questions believers are afraid to ask out loud — doubt, deconstruction, and the patience of God.
Is doubt a sin, a season, or a doorway? In this episode, Dr. Thomas Whitfield and Pastor Sarah Nwosu take on the questions that arrive in pastors' inboxes at 2 a.m.: What do I do when the answers stop working? Can I question without losing my faith? Why did Jesus scold some doubters and welcome Thomas?
Along the way: the difference between doubt and unbelief, why deconstruction needs reconstruction, Jude's command to "have mercy on those who doubt," and a word for anyone walking with a questioning friend.
Listen on your commute or your quiet walk — and send us the questions you'd like us to take up next.
