Alexandra Hoover: The Gift of Doubt Leads to Faith

Show Notes

Doubt isn’t the opposite of faith. If we lean in to it instead of running away in fear of where it could lead, it can actually be a gift that leads us to a more meaningful faith than we ever imagined.

Alexandra Hoover, author of Eyes Up and Without Wavering, has experienced a lot of resistance in her spiritual life. Through unexpected loss of close family members and church hurt on the side of vocational ministry, she has been left with unanswered prayers multiple times. Yet, she continues to see God’s hand in her life and believes in His bigger story.

This episode is for anyone who has experienced church hurt, doubt, questions or who wonders if their story is important enough to have an impact in the world.
