Stuck in God's Waiting Room

John 20.19-31

Rev. Greg Wissinger

 

On the first evening after being resurrected, Jesus appeared to his disciples, but one disciple, Thomas, was not with them. Thomas would not take the others' word that Jesus had been raised from the dead. When Jesus appeared to them again a week later, Thomas was able to see for himself the resurrected Christ and proclaim, "My Lord and My God." But where was Thomas that first appearance? Why was he absent? What thoughts might Thomas have been wrestling with during that week? Join Pastor Greg as he shares how we might move forward with our lives when we feel like we've missed out on God's blessing in some way.
