#28 Doubting Thomas "More than a lowest moment"

  • Resumen

  • Episode Description:
    Have you ever been labeled by your worst moment? This week on The Unreligious Podcast, we explore the story of Doubting Thomas—a man known for his hesitation, but remembered by Jesus for so much more.Host Drew Finchum dives into John 20:24–29, where Thomas says he won’t believe unless he sees Jesus with his own eyes. But Jesus doesn’t shame him—He shows up just for him. Jesus invites him: “Put your finger here... Stop doubting and believe.” (v.27). What follows is one of the boldest confessions in Scripture: “My Lord and my God!” (v.28). And the blessing that echoes to us today: “Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.” (v.29)This episode tackles raw, real questions:
    • Why do we doubt, and what does God do with our doubts?
    • How do we move from shame to grace?
    • What if your lowest moment is where your breakthrough begins?
    We’ll also look at the full biblical and historical picture of Thomas:
    • John 11:16 – Thomas shows boldness: “Let us also go, that we may die with Him.”
    • John 14:5 – He’s honest about his confusion: “Lord, we don’t know where You are going...”
    • John 21:2 & Acts 1:13 – He remains faithful post-resurrection, gathering with other disciples.
    • History says he brought the Gospel to India and was martyred by spear—faithful to the end.
    You’ll also hear about other biblical “label moments”:
    • Peter denied Jesus (Luke 22:61–62) but became the Rock
    • Elijah begged to die (1 Kings 19)
    • Sarah laughed at God’s promise (Genesis 18:12)
    • David committed adultery and murder, but was still called a man after God's own heart
    • Mary Magdalene (Luke 8:2) was the first to see the risen Jesus (John 20:18)
    • The Woman at the Well (John 4:17–18) helped spark a revival (John 4:39–41)
    • Gideon doubted himself (Judges 6:15), but God said, “I will be with you.” (Judges 6:16)
    • Moses stuttered (Exodus 4:10–12), yet God used him to lead a nation
    And we wrap with this powerful truth:“You are all children of God through faith in Christ Jesus.” – Galatians 3:26

    “Anyone who belongs to Christ is a new person. The past is forgotten, and everything is new.” – 2 Corinthians 5:17

    Whether you're a lifelong believer, a deconstructing skeptic, or someone burned out on religion, this episode is for you. Jesus doesn’t define you by your lowest moment—and neither should you.
