Is it possible that your doubt isn’t a detour—but an invitation?
In this deeply honest episode, Kristen Hallinan sits down with Nikki Hardy to explore the powerful intersection of faith and questioning. Drawing from her book *Can We Chat?*, Nikki shares how her battles with loss, cancer, and leadership in crisis opened the door to a more authentic, resilient relationship with God. They unpack how doubt and faith can coexist, and introduce the CHAT conversation guide—an approachable, practical tool for turning uncertainty into meaningful dialogue with God.
If you’ve ever felt hesitant to bring your hard questions to Him, this episode will remind you: God is not afraid of your doubt—He welcomes it.
More about Niki: Niki Hardy is the author of Audi Award nominated, Breathe Again and One Minute Prayers for Women with Cancer. Her new book, God, Can We Chat? A Daringly Honest Guide to Growing Closer to God, One Doubt at a Time, hits the shelves March 2025 . Niki’s been featured in places like the Hallmark Channel, Life Today, Relevant Magazine, 100 Huntley St, and Premier Radio. Having left corporate life, been to seminary, moved continents, planted churches, started businesses and nonprofits, and navigated loss, cancer, church hurt and painful uncertainty, she firmly believes God loves a cheerful doubter. Niki lives in North Carolina with her husband and ridiculous Doodle, Charlie, who is the main reason their three grown kids come home.
