When faith falls apart, we don’t always make a dramatic exit—we simply begin to walk away.In this sermon on Luke 24:13–35, two disciples leave Jerusalem carrying the weight of shattered hope: “We had hoped…” What they believed about God no longer holds. And somewhere along that road of disappointment and confusion, a stranger comes near.This episode explores the kind of crisis that causes faith to fracture—loss, suffering, unanswered prayer—and the quiet ways Christ meets us there. Not with quick answers, but with presence. Not by avoiding the broken places, but by walking into them.If you’ve ever found yourself unsure what you believe… if prayer has felt empty… if hope has thinned… this is a story for you.Because even when we are walking away,we may not be walking alone.
