My Lord and My God: Processing Doubt Through Faith - 03 July 2026

Behold a reflection centered on the biblical account of “Doubting Thomas” and his eventual confession of faith. The homily explores the human nature of doubt, suggesting that such uncertainty serves as an opportunity to draw closer to divine conviction rather than a reason for shame. By examining the apostle’s demand for empirical evidence of the Resurrection, I highlight the transition from skepticism to faith. It emphasizes that while Thomas required physical proof, modern believers are blessed to trust the testimony of tradition and scripture. Ultimately, the discourse encourages listeners to adopt the phrase “My Lord and my God” as a personal act of submission and trust in divine providence. Additionally, I touch upon themes of prayer and the importance of peaceful, gentle guidance over fear-based authority.
