Welcome to another episode of Be The 25! Today, we're diving into the power of questions ❓❓❓and how they can propel our faith forward. Questions are essential—they lead us to explore, learn, and understand things better. Just imagine a world without questions—it would be stagnant, void of progress. But thankfully, we can ask questions, even spiritual ones, to deepen our faith. 🤔

Starting with the questions you already have, creating scenario questions, and seeking to answer common objections to Christianity are all great ways to deepen your faith and understanding.

Finding someone to discuss your questions with is crucial. ☝️Seek out individuals who respect and encourage your questions, guiding you to seek truth with an open heart and
mind. Remember, God can bring the right people into your path, even in unexpected places, to help you find answers.

Whether you're using online resources like GotQuestions.org or reaching out through Bethe25.com, remember that asking questions is a powerful tool in your faith journey. 

So keep seeking, keep asking, and may God lead you to the answers you seek. Thanks for joining us today! Be the 25!

🎙️Welcome to another episode of Be The 25, the podcast that empowers Christian teens and young adults to stay strong in their faith journey. 🎧🙌 

Today, we're joined by a special guest, Olivia Bacon, a sophomore from the University of Mississippi. 📚Olivia's journey is one of twists, turns, doubts, and rediscovery of her Christian faith. 🌱 Despite being raised in a Christian household with parents involved in ministry, Olivia encountered doubt along her journey. But she walked away from her faith, even identifying as an atheist for a period, before finding her way back to Christianity.

Olivia shares the reasons why she left the faith and the pivotal moments that brought her back to faith. 💬 She highlights the importance of seeking answers and being open-minded. 🤔

Her story serves as a reminder that faith journeys are filled with choices—choices to leave, to question, to seek, to be open-minded, to reconsider a decision to leave the faith, and ultimately, to come back to the faith. Each choice we make is a part of our story—a story that matters deeply. 📖

Join us as we explore Olivia's inspiring journey and gain insight into embracing doubts and seeking truth in our own faith journeys. Be the 25! 🌟
