Doubting Thomas
For our Easter series we are focusing on the testimonies of the early church in Scripture, and how that can inspire our own testimonies. Today’s lesson will be from Thomas, whose doubt was turned to deep and abiding faith. Doubt is not the absence of faith, but a necessary component of a deepening faith. If you find yourselves in a place of doubt this morning, know that you are not alone and that the Lord also dwells in our unbelief.
