Pastor Ian dives into the story of Thomas from John 20:19-29. We're reminded that Jesus meets us exactly where we are, not where others think we should be. The central message revolves around the idea that conditional faith is still faith, and that honesty in our spiritual journey is crucial. We see how Thomas's blunt honesty about his doubts led to a profound encounter with the risen Christ. This story challenges us to examine our own faith, encouraging us to be real with God about our struggles and uncertainties. It's a reminder that Jesus doesn't shy away from our doubts but uses them as an opportunity to reveal Himself more fully. The message invites us to trust that God can handle our questions and will meet us in our moments of deepest need, offering peace and strength.
