Episode 117: Bite-Sized Bible Study | Can You Be a Disciple and Doubt? | Matthew 28:16-20
Description
Sometimes we feel like we shouldn't doubt or ask questions. We feel like we have to have all the answers. We don't want to offend Jesus with doubts, or we wonder if can truly follow Jesus if we still have some loose ends that haven't been tied up when it comes to our faith.
Unfortunately, I think that doubt has gotten tangled up in shame—but that is not Jesus' intention for us.
In Matthew 28:16-20, we are told that some of the disciples struggled with doubt, and instead of trying scolding them, or telling them to get lost, Jesus came close. He met them in the midst of their concerns and confusion… and then He empowered them to “go and make disciples of all the nations.”
This passage reminds us that sifting through questions doesn't disqualify you; sifting through questions is a healthy part of discipleship.
