  • Can You Follow Jesus and Still Doubt God? - Henry Soriano

    In this episode of the Christianity Integrated Podcast, we sit down with Henry, a language teacher, to explore his unique journey of faith. Growing up in a religious household and attending a Catholic school, Henry always had Christianity in his life. However, his university years brought periods of doubt and questioning, leading him to explore other religions like Buddhism and Hinduism. After a profound spiritual experience in Germany and England, he entered a seminary in hopes of becoming a priest but ultimately left, feeling that his true calling was elsewhere. Henry discusses living with both faith and doubt, viewing Jesus as an inspirational figure, and incorporating mystical aspects of faith. This candid conversation offers insights into finding peace and meaning through spirituality, even amidst uncertainty.
