Between His resurrection and His ascension, Jesus had some “candid conversations” with his disciples. These conversations that were meant to be a bit of a revelation to us about what his new world – the new world that began with his crucifixion and resurrection – would look like. It wasn’t about a new religion – it was about a whole new reality and a new life of discovery for those who choose to follow him.

Of all the conversations Jesus had during his time on earth after the Resurrection, perhaps the most famous was the one with the man who will be forever known as “Doubting Thomas.” Thomas wasn’t there when the other disciples first saw the risen Jesus, so he wasn’t buying it. He wanted to see proof – but, like us, his doubt about his faith was more complicated than it may appear on the surface.

The miraculous moment of the Resurrection became a movement in the years that followed. But how? Through conversations after the Resurrection, Jesus taught about a different way of living – the Way of Jesus, the way to a Full Life – that would change the world. This week we look at a conversation about our faith: how it can easily fail, and what to do when it does.
