Today we're reaching way back to January of 2021 to episode 4: Is It Okay to Question? We center in on three areas in this episode:
1. Is it okay to question the Church's teachings?
2. Is it okay to question the Church's clergy?
3. Is it okay to question God?
This is an important brick in the rebuilding of our faith foundation, so I hope you'll give it a listen! Here are some resources that will help you explore this topic for yourself. Blessings on you as you do the holy work of questioning.
1. Open up that “Conversations with God” notebook we’ve talked about and write out your questions or concerns about our faith’s teachings, practices, and public personalities. You don’t have to tackle them all in one sitting (or ever) but getting them out there in writing is a good start.
