Today, we’re talking about a topic that can feel heavy, confusing, and even scary for parents: how to walk alongside your child who is questioning their faith or wrestling with doubt. Now is the perfect time to equip ourselves with understanding, patience, and the right tools—because when our kids struggle with faith, what they often need most is not answers, but a safe space to explore their questions.
We’re honored to welcome Jon Noyes to the podcast. Jon is a seasoned speaker, apologist, and writer who has spent years helping families navigate difficult conversations about faith, doubt, and belief. With a blend of practical wisdom, empathy, and encouragement, he offers parents a steady, hope-filled approach to a deeply sensitive journey.
In this episode, we explore how to respond with grace, maintain trust and connection, and engage these conversations without fear or defensiveness. Whether your child is a teen, a young adult, or somewhere in between, this discussion is designed to equip you to walk alongside them with love, empathy, and hope. If you’ve ever wondered how to stay connected when beliefs are being questioned, this episode is for you.
