Skepticism, in most contexts, hold a pretty negative connotation. People do not like skeptics, and prefer to not be labeled as one. The idea of constantly doubting is not a characteristic you want applied to your life. But, I think everyone needs a healthy level of skepticism, especially in the church. For a long time […]

During church yesterday, the question was asked, “Are you spiritually formed enough to survive outside of a church?” This definitely was not something most people have ever been asked.
