Faith, Doubt, and the Christ We Didn't Expect

Aug 9, 2026    Adam Smith

Doubt is not a sign of weak faith. It is an invitation to bring your questions somewhere, and the right place to bring them is to Jesus. Even John the Baptist, whom Jesus called the greatest person ever born, wrestled with doubt while sitting in prison, wondering if Jesus was truly the Messiah. His expectations of swift judgment had not been met, and his experience did not match what he believed. Jesus responded not with rebuke but with grace, pointing John back to the Scriptures and to the works that confirmed His identity. The cross and resurrection do not answer every question, but they give us something more substantial than answers. They give us Jesus Himself. Doubt does not disqualify you from coming to Christ. If anything, it is one more reason to come.
