Theologian Lesslie Newbigin writes, "We live in an age that favors doubt over faith. Both faith and doubt are needed, yet it is faith that is more fundamental. Even if I doubt something, I must believe there are criteria by which it can be judged. I must believe something before I can doubt anything. To choose doubt as a philosophy of life is akin to choosing immobility as a means of transportation." I believe we come to church to be moved beyond a doubt. Our faith tradition encourages open inquiry. And our questions and doubts must be motivators to deepen and clarify our faith, giving us ground to stand on.
