Jesse de Leon gets honest about doubt, grace, and the emotional weight of guilt in this powerful episode of The Knowing. He tackles the hard questions: Why does God allow suffering? Why do we struggle to forgive ourselves? And why is faith so challenging even for believers?

Through stories about family, missed goals, personal slumps, and everyday setbacks, Jesse reminds us that belief doesn't require perfection—it requires hope. He explains how shame keeps us stuck, but grace allows us to rise again tomorrow. If you've fallen short in your fitness, relationships, faith, or purpose, this conversation will help you release the heaviness and move forward with courage.
