The smiles of strangers the successes of our loved ones the peace in our families, the community of our church ...read more

    Do we have the faith that would be pleasing to God?

Heb 11 teaches what it means to possess genuine faith, genuine trust in God: Look at chapter 10:39 - Hebrews 11 is the continuation of that ...read more

    It's often easier for Christians to have faith in the big, amazing things God does than it is to have faith that he is acting in small ways in our lives every day.

    “To have faith is to be sure of the things we hope for, to be certain of the things we cannot see.” Most Christians are familiar with some version of this verse. It’s been used as a definition for faith even in the secular world. It’s something we say to people to give ...read more
