Contributed by Mark Haines on Mar 12, 2007

I’m calling God’s people in my care to develop a faith in Jesus that goes beyond mental assent (belief) to include emotional reliance (trust) and active obedience (loyalty).

That makes me think that faith is very important -- even vital. But what is faith? The Bible commands us to "stand firm in the ...read more
