A Bout With Doubt
Responding To Global Turmoil And Personal Doubt
6 Parts | By: Ed Young
When terrorist attacks and needless violence fill the news headlines, our minds are flooded with questions. And as world events turn tragic more and more often, these questions can’t be ignored.
A Bout with Doubt shows us how faith can help us sort out a world that doesn’t seem to make sense anymore. Within this 6-week series, two messages stand out as especially relevant to current events. Global Doubt, Part 1 and Part 2, go deep into some of the world’s largest religions, and examine the fundamental beliefs that produce radically different world views.

Dealing With Doubt
What do you do when your faith is down for the count? Depending on how you deal with it, doubt can either choke out your faith or feed it. Ed Young shows us that it's okay to doubt, as long as we deal openly and honestly with God about our questions. He also defines the kinds of punches that can knock out our faith and identifies their probable sources.

Understanding Faith
The essence of faith is often hard to define. Many search for all the answers before they will take that important step of faith in Christ; but, if they had all the answers, they wouldn't need faith. Ed Young exposes some of the most common misunderstandings about faith and talks about the faith that pleases God.

Reviewing Faith
A bout with doubt often requires a Very Critical Response (VCR). Like the controls on a VCR, this response will require some rewinding, some fast-forwarding and the avoidance of the pause and eject buttons. In this creative message, Ed will help you push the right buttons to get your faith back on track.
