The reason for not addressing doubt might be fear of being wrong or its laziness and neglect. It’s hard work. It takes time. You might be perceived as a stick in the mud. Your neighbors may wonder what’s wrong with you. And it’s true you may fail to give trust where it’s earned. So start there, giving everyone trust. And when doubt arises in your heart, push back. Challenge one another. Ask questions. Do the research. God gave you your heart and mind, your doubts which lead your imagination and inquiry. You may be wrong in which case you’ll be led out of ignorance. Or your suspicions may be correct, and your neighbor in error and now corrected. And in so doing, both you and your neighbor’s faith and life will increase. “As iron sharpens iron, so a man sharpens the countenance of his friend.” (Proverbs 27:17)
