Dr. Betsy Guerra (speaker) reflects on moving from skepticism to faith, distinguishing religion from faith and describing how welcoming faith changed her life — making it more purposeful and enjoyable. She notes her upbringing challenging organized religion and that embracing faith shifted her question from "is this true?" to "if this were true, how would my life be better?" The speaker also cites (non-specific) research claiming that people who are faithful report greater happiness.

Chapters

If you've ever felt spiritually in between or confused or lost, this episode is for you. You've taught me that there's a difference between religion and faith. And because I grew up challenging religion, I assumed that I could not be a person of faith. How is your life different? Because you welcomed that possibility into it. I get to enjoy life more now. The question stopped being, is this true? And the question became, if this were true, how would my life be better? There's a lot of research that proves that people who believe, who are faithful, are happier. You are here on purpose, living a purposeful life, as opposed to just checking the boxes.
