What Scripture Teaches

Doubt is not the opposite of faith — unbelief is. Doubt is honest wrestling; unbelief is willful refusal.

Faith is not the absence of questions but trust in the midst of them.

Feed your faith with Scripture and starve your doubts of attention. What you focus on grows.

Many great believers doubted: Thomas, John the Baptist, David. God did not reject them.
