Frequently Asked Questions

As a child I always had so many questions. I was the one in class who always had his hand up. With her back turned to me, my teacher would often reply, “yes, Rey,” because she knew I would be the one with a question.


In the church my childhood curiosity was squelched. When I asked questions of my church community, I began to understand that some issues and themes that were off-limits. It was not appropriate to ask about hell, homosexuality, or desire mathematical proofs for God’s existence.

At the cathedral, we want to break the taboo that some issues are off-limits in the church. We want to create a culture where questions are okay, even encouraged! We, ourselves, certainly have questions sometimes (especially me). Faith is not the absence of questions, but leaning into God with our questions.

Thus, we have created the summer preaching schedule with this goal in mind: to create a culture of authenticity with our questions.  The only problem is that we don’t know what questions YOU have and what you want to talk about!

For the next 2 weeks, we are asking everyone to send us a list of their biggest questions regarding God, life, and church.  Nothing is off limits.  If you don’t feel comfortable asking the question, feel free send us questions anonymously (commenting on this blog is a great way to do so).  After we receive the questions we will pray and choose the eight issues that Pastor Tim and I will address each Sunday this summer.

Would love to hear your feedback!
