In this episode, we explore the age-old question of whether we are more like bold Peter or doubting Thomas. Through stories and reflections from the Bible, we examine the moments in our lives when we take risks, step out of our comfort zones, and demonstrate courage like Peter. At the same time, we also delve into the times when we have doubts, question our beliefs, and struggled with uncertainty like Thomas.
But as we delve deeper, we discover that these two seemingly opposing traits are not mutually exclusive. Both Peter and Thomas were both bold and doubted at different times, and both of these qualities can coexist within us as well. Join us as we explore the complexities of human nature and the many ways in which we can embody both boldness and doubt in our own lives.
