In this episode of the Sojourner Storycast, we step into the story of Thomas—one of Jesus’ twelve disciples who is remembered not just for doubting, but for asking honest questions and showing remarkable courage: “Let us also go, that we may die with Him.” Thomas’ story helps us explore what it means to follow Jesus even when it’s scary, confusing, or risky.

Through Thomas’ courage, doubts, and ultimate confession—“My Lord and my God!”—we discover that faith isn’t about having all the answers or being perfect, but about trusting Jesus, walking with Him, and learning to know Him every day. Thomas teaches us that it’s okay to ask questions, that doubts can lead to deeper understanding, and that following Jesus is about relationship and trust, not checklists or rules.

Thomas’ story reminds us that God meets us where we are, loves us even when we doubt, and calls us to live boldly for Him. His life invites us to follow Jesus freely, courageously, and with open hearts.

Scripture: John 11:1–16, John 14:1–7, John 20:24–29
