Why Is Trusting God So Hard?
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
We often assume mistrust comes from pain or a broken world. But Scripture tells the story in reverse. In this episode, we look at Genesis and discover that mistrust did not result from brokenness. Brokenness resulted from mistrust.
Before rebellion or disobedience, trust was questioned.
This episode reframes why trusting God has never been effortless and why faith has always involved choice. Not with easy answers or practical steps, but with a deeper understanding of where mistrust actually begins and what that means for how we live before God.
