About this listen

 In this episode of The Dialog, we wrestle with a question most people avoid because it’s uncomfortable: what are you actually certain of? In a world desperate for clarity, confidence, and easy answers, certainty often feels like strength. But the longer we live, the more we realize how little we truly know. This conversation starts with the tension between confidence and humility, and why the pursuit of certainty can quietly become a trap.

We talk about how people form beliefs, why comparison and self talk shape our inner world, and how life is lived in constant tension between things that seem to be true at the same time. Free will and God’s sovereignty. Conviction and flexibility. Trusting experts while recognizing their limits. From science and psychology to leadership, faith, and culture, we explore how the human desire for certainty often oversimplifies a world that is far more nuanced than we’d like.

Ultimately, this episode isn’t about having the right answers. It’s about becoming the kind of person who can live faithfully in uncertainty. Truth can handle questions. Principles endure testing. And faith is not certainty about outcomes, but trust in who God is. This is an invitation to examine what you believe, why you believe it, and whether your certainty is producing wisdom, humility, and fruit in your life.
