Season 10 Episode 4 - The Shocking Kindness of Jesus... In Our Doubts

Rick and the Becky-nator are back with the fourth episode in our new series “The Shocking Kindness of Jesus.” It’s the theme of a new book Rick is working on - Snakes & Stones: The Shocking Kindness of Jesus. In this fourth episode of the series, we’ll explore the kindness of Jesus in the midst of our doubts. When Jesus invites Thomas to “put your finger here, and look at my hands,” we commonly imagine Him scowling—He must be exasperated with this guy. But here’s a different take—Jesus is not put off or offended or surprised by Thomas’ doubts. Quite the opposite, actually… He sees Thomas for He is, but we do not.
