Wrestling with Doubt, Finding Faith
Worship series, church-wide study, and More Than Sunday podcast season: March 9 - April 13, 2025
Certainty is virtually impossible, and the Bible is full of people who doubt. Doubt is a path to deeper faith, yet if we hang onto doubt, it will paralyze us. So we look to deepen our faith by examining difficult questions as guided by Rev. Adam Hamilton's book Wrestling with Doubt, Finding Faith, and we implore the prayer from Mark 9:24, “Lord I believe, help my unbelief.”
