Faith is not knowledge. It is living what you know is true in your heart, even when you have no physical proof that it is.
Which means that when we talk about the “gathering of the faithful,” we’re not talking about the gathering of those who’s faith/knowledge is absolute. We’re talking about those people who have all kinds of questions and doubts but still find joy and wonder in this message of good news about new life.
We’re talking about those who have hope. When we build our faith muscle, we can be as Jesus said, Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have come to believe.” That takes practice!
