Read Matthew 7:7-8. How does it feel to know that God can handle your questions and that he wants us to ask them boldly and honestly?
What’s one way you can take some time to wrestle with your doubts with God this week?
Let’s end our time praying together. You can say something like;
“God, thank you for being patient with us when we doubt, and even wanting to hear our doubts. It can be so difficult sometimes to have faith and believe, so help us as we work through those things and grow in you. Amen.”
There’s a long list of things that can make you feel like you’re a “Bad Christian“. The swear word when you stub your toe. The glass of wine when the kids are in bed. Sometimes it’s just as simple as asking one too many questions.
But what if asking questions didn’t mean you were far away from God? What if it’s just the doorway to know Him more? In a world that’s quick to hop into a all caps-lock online debate, Chuck Mingo shows us how it’s ok to come to God with our questions—and how Jesus will meet us there.
