Hazy faith is what happens when life goes sideways—when the dream dies, the diagnosis comes, or the prayer goes unanswered—and Todd meets us there with brutal honesty and genuine hope.
Discussion Questions
7 questions1.Todd describes hazy faith as the fog you enter when circumstances contradict everything you believed God promised. Describe a time in your life when your faith felt foggy—when you couldn't see God clearly and weren't sure what to believe. What was that season like?
2.Job lost everything—his children, his wealth, his health—and his first response was not neat theological reflection but raw grief and honest lament. Todd validates lament as a legitimate and even holy response. How does the existence of lament psalms in Scripture give you permission to be honest with God about pain and confusion?
3.One of the great temptations in hazy seasons is to interpret unanswered prayer or painful circumstances as evidence that God doesn't care or isn't real. What are the dangers of allowing circumstances—rather than character—to be the primary measure of God's faithfulness?
a.What is the difference between God being absent and God being silent?
b.Can you think of a time when what felt like abandonment turned out to be preparation?
