What If Losing Your Faith Is Actually Part of Finding It?

What if the moment you thought your faith was slipping away… was actually the moment it started growing deeper roots?

In this episode of Together 4 Good, Pastor Nate wrestles with a truth that’s both unsettling and freeing: sometimes, you have to lose your faith to find it again. He explores why doubt isn’t a failure—it’s often the beginning of a more honest, mature faith.

This episode unpacks how God meets us in our uncertainty, how compassion heals more than clichés ever could, and how even in the silence, God is already showing up, sometimes right in the palm of your hand.

You’ll hear about:

Why “childlike faith” isn’t the same as childish faith.

The harm in faith clichés like “God never gives you more than you can handle.”

What it really means to suffer with someone (compassion’s truest definition).

How doubt and belief can coexist and why faith actually requires both.

A personal story about doubt, communion, and discovering God in the middle of it all.

Whether you’ve ever felt disconnected from church, uncertain about your beliefs, or frustrated by easy answers, this episode is for you. It’s a reminder that resurrection comes after death of faith, of certainty, of what we thought we knew.

Maybe what feels like losing faith is really God inviting you into something more real.
