In Unraveling the LIe-Knot, Sheryl Giesbrecht Turner offers encouragement and hope for those who...

Is it okay for Christians to doubt? When we don't get answers or see God's guiding hand, it's hard to keep praying or walking forward in faith. Difficult times often cloud our perspective. Many Christians confuse doubt with unbelief and are afraid to admit those fears, but God is not threatened by our questions, and doubt does not negate our faith. Our doubts express a yearning to be sure of what-and who-we trust. When our questions are answered by trust, faith is fed and our doubts transform into deeper belief that pushes us toward a decision. 1. When we address doubt head-on our...

Jesus said in John 16:33, “I have said these things to you, that in me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world” (ESV).

Depending on God amid the noise, confusion, and troubles around you lands on a solid ground in Him and there is nothing in this world that can defeat you or take away your peace. To affirm God’s goodness amidst difficult times is as much an act of worship as it is a sign of integrity. Those who have trusted in Christ Jesus for salvation were never meant to live defeated, despairing, boxed-in, unhappy lives. In Romans 5:17, Paul writes that the “abundance of grace” we have received and receive every day, along with the gift of righteousness, enables us to “reign...
