In the second episode of 'Nothing Doubting,' we delve deep into the concept of radical faith and the importance of asking questions in one's faith journey. The episode builds on perspectives discussed in the first installment, including the pitfalls of magical faith and gray area faith. We emphasize that radical faith requires stepping out of one's comfort zone and facing uncomfortable questions and doubts. Through personal anecdotes and teachings from President Russel M. Nelson, I outline the critical role of personal revelation in navigating spiritual disconnects and crises. I encourage you to embrace their questions as a path to deeper understanding and stronger faith.
