You pray, you show up, you say all the right words, and from the outside everything looks fine. But underneath, the connection you once felt has gone quiet, and you cannot say when it slipped. This is not lost faith. It is drift, the slow distance that builds in the space between decisions.

Dr. Carter Check, a chaplain and healthcare ethicist, names this experience and explains why borrowed faith feels so exhausting. You leave knowing the way back is simpler and closer than you thought.
