Believe Harder (John 20:19-31)

The call to follow Jesus isn’t a call to give up your reason. It’s not about believing harder. It’s about being committed to moving forward, not knowing what you’ll encounter, but convinced you’ve got to do it anyway.

You ask me … “Doubting Thomas” is the hero of this story, not because his doubting is somehow a map to mustering up belief for Post-Enlightenment moderns, but because he’s the guy that kept showing up, absent empirical evidence and verifiable truth. Everybody else got a sneak preview, right?
