Still Going to Church, Still Not Sure: Blake Lawler on Doubt, Duty, and Doing His Best

What happens when the life you've built around your faith begins to crack — and you're no longer sure if you believe?

In this powerful and heartfelt conversation, Derek reconnects with Blake Lawler, a fellow former missionary and dentist, who opens up about his journey navigating a crisis of faith within a devoted LDS family. Blake shares how one quiet moment of research unraveled deeply held beliefs, the emotional toll of carrying doubts in silence, and the complexities of being a father and husband when your beliefs no longer align with your family's.

This episode explores:

The emotional weight of doubting in silence

How to support a believing spouse while deconstructing

Raising children with integrity and openness

Finding peace, purpose, and growth beyond belief

Whether you're questioning, believing, or somewhere in between, Blake's honesty will leave you feeling seen, inspired, and less alone.
