Real Questions I Asked (and What I Learned)

This is the part of the site for the questions that don’t fit in a neat sermon. The doubts, intrusive thoughts, “am I crazy?” moments, and quiet fears you might not say out loud in church. You’re not alone for asking them — and Jesus isn’t scared of them.

This isn’t an encyclopedia of every question imaginable. It’s a journey map through the things that helped me make it through salvation, the mental battles, and the fire — with the Bible as our authority and Jesus at the center.

Not sure where to begin? Here’s the fastest path.

If you’re brand new to this, start with the foundations. If you’re already saved but your mind feels under attack, start with warfare and inner healing. If life is messy and relationships or habits are exploding, start there.

How this works

What this page is — and how to use it

Every major question on this site lives in one of the lanes below. This is not meant to be “every question about Jesus ever.” It’s meant to be the questions that actually show up when you’re trying to follow Him in real life — especially when your mind, emotions, and past start screaming.

Each individual question becomes its own page, so you can share it, bookmark it, and come back when the battle hits again.

  • Browse by lane based on what you’re facing right now.
  • Start with the featured questions if your brain is foggy and you don’t know where to begin.
  • Submit your question at the bottom if you don’t see yours yet.

How can I know I’m really saved?
When you don’t feel saved, or you keep messing up — did you do it “right” or lose it?
Why did Jesus have to die?
Couldn’t God just forgive? Why the cross, blood, and suffering at all?
Why do I get intrusive, blasphemous thoughts?
Does this mean I don’t love God — or that demons are winning?
Conviction vs shame
How to tell the Holy Spirit’s pull back to Jesus from demonic accusation that pushes you away.
Why do my emotions flip so fast?
Peace one minute, panic or numbness the next — what is going on?
Why can’t I feel God?
Numbness, burnout, depression, dryness — and how to walk by faith when feelings go flat.
How do I break emotional strongholds?

What does spiritual warfare feel like emotionally?

Your turn

Share your real question

If you don’t see your question yet, you can share it here. The goal isn’t to give you a quick religious slogan, but to walk through it with Scripture, honesty, and hope. Some answers may show up as new pages on this site, and some may come as a more personal reply when possible.

For prayer requests or more personal details, you can also use the Reach Out page.

Only needed if you’d like a response by email.
Share what you’re really wrestling with. Details help, but you don’t have to overshare.
How would you like this answered?
Your question will be handled with care. It’s read by a real person, not a marketing bot. This isn’t emergency or professional counseling. If you are in immediate danger or thinking about harming yourself, please contact local emergency services right away.

You don’t have to clean your question up to make it “church safe.” If you’re angry, confused, embarrassed, or feel like your question is too dark or weird, you’re exactly the kind of person this page was built for.

Honest questions are often the doorway to deeper trust with Jesus. He already knows what you’re thinking. Bringing it into the light puts the conversation where it belongs — with Him.
