The Benefit of Doubt

Part 2 of Series: Rodeo of Life

It seems inevitable in the course of our life that we struggle with doubt in our faith. Though it is often seen as a problem to be avoided, our experiences with doubt can instead be viewed as a doorway that leads to a deeper faith. Ryan Shook looks at examples in Scripture where the doubts of heroes of the faith were not condemned but were acknowledged and answered, and how those episodes of doubt served as a point of greater faith in their lives.
