finding faith
Coming to believe
Finding faith describes the process of coming to religious or spiritual belief, often after a period of doubt, searching, or indifference.
The phrase implies discovery rather than inheritance—faith arrived at through personal journey rather than simply being raised in it: After years of skepticism, she found faith in her forties.
Finding faith can also apply to secular contexts: regaining trust in people, institutions, or oneself.
