Doubting Thomas story. Yay. The word "believe" is so important to John. He includes this story about someone who just can't believe. I'm glad that Thomas made it into the story. Because sometimes it's hard to believe. Do we really believe this stuff? I think it's a fair question - and it's a question we shouldn't hesitate to ask. Christianity is made out to be a set of beliefs you have to assent to. If that's all it is, then when you doubt, when you question, suddenly the whole thing falls apart. But what if it's more than that? The word "believe" is also translated as "to trust." And it's probably a better translation. Trust is a relational word. Our faith isn't just about believing the right things - it's also about relationships. Maybe that's why John gives us this story - to benefit those who will not see Jesus and touch his wounds. It's John's way of saying, "I was there - trust me." And when we trust each other - when we gather together - even if it is behind closed doors - somehow we get Jesus, too.
