Room for Honest Questions

biblical pattern (Thomas, psalms, Job)

Thomas refused to believe without seeing. The psalmists repeatedly asked God why. Job poured out confusion. Scripture records these voices without erasing them. Honest doubt is not the opposite of faith; pretend certainty often is. The risen Christ met Thomas in his demand for evidence and did not crush him for asking.
