All In for Christ: The Faith of St. Thomas
Though Thomas is often remembered for his doubt, Fr. Chris reminded us that once Thomas encountered the Risen Christ, he was completely transformed. His disbelief became a gift for the faith of generations, because through his encounter with the wounds of Jesus, Thomas gave one of the clearest proclamations of Christ’s divinity. Fr. Chris also shared how St. Thomas became a courageous missionary, bringing Christianity to India centuries before it reached many parts of Europe.
