    A CONFIDENT FAITH Jesus indicted the Pharisees saying: "All therefore whatsoever they bid you observe, that observe and do; but do not ye after their works: for they say, and do not.

    Those who share Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior begin to become as magnets to those who share the same intimate relationship.

    A WALK BY FAITH I have a friend in Alaska. Some years ago he was a rising executive in a large, influential business. Then God spoke to him to quit his job and go to full-time Bible college.

    SANDBAR FAITH Have you ever stepped on ground that seemed unsteady, but you really had to go on, just to get where you were going?

    FAITH AND DOUBT Elie Wiesel, when asked to describe his faith, uses the adjective "wounded."

Another honest believer writes: "It's not as a child that I believe and ...read more

    REAL FAITH The classic test an atheist will give to prove there is no God is this: "If there is a God, let him kill me right now".

    Faith is like a trapeze. We walk by faith, not sight (2 Cor. 5:7). We learn three things: 1) It takes a leap of faith to let go of one bar and reach for the other one. 2) It can be scary letting go to your security and trusting. 3) You don’t have forever to decide to let go and grab the other bar. ...read more
