About this listen

The Open Church: Faith That Welcomes Questions

In a world where faith is often treated as a fortress of certainty, The Open Church invites readers into a different kind of Christianity—one that welcomes questions, embraces growth, and seeks deeper truth.

For too long, many churches have feared doubt, intellectual inquiry, and theological exploration. But true faith is not fragile—it is strengthened through wrestling with questions, engaging new ideas, and refining our beliefs.

In this bold and thought-provoking book, The Open Church challenges the idea that questioning is a threat to faith. Instead, it reveals how Jesus himself encouraged deep thinking, how Scripture models a faith that evolves through learning, and how the Church can become a community of seekers rather than gatekeepers.

What You’ll Discover in This Book:

Why faith must grow, change, and adapt over time—without losing its foundation.
How to create a church culture that encourages curiosity rather than suppressing doubts.
Why love, not certainty, is the defining mark of authentic faith.
How theology should be refined, questioned, and ethically distilled for each generation.
Why deep faith is not about having all the answers, but about trusting God in the mystery.

This book is for seekers, skeptics, lifelong believers, pastors, and anyone longing for a Christianity that is alive, evolving, and deeply engaged with the world.

If you’ve ever felt that your questions put you on the outside of faith, this book is your invitation back in.

Faith was never meant to be a closed system—it was meant to be an open, ongoing journey toward truth, wisdom, and love.
