This sermon, drawn from Luke 7:18–28, explores the reality of doubt in the life of believers through the example of John the Baptist, who questioned whether Jesus was truly the Messiah while imprisoned. Pastor McKinley teaches that doubt often arises when our expectations of God don’t align with our experiences, but faith can be strengthened by remembering the evidence of God’s grace, His Word, and His past faithfulness. Ultimately, he encourages believers to move from defiance to dependence—trusting that even when understanding fails, God’s mercy never wavers and His grip on His children never loosens.
