Is Your Faith Working??

Contributed by Richard Tow on Sep 7, 2009

People have differing views about how faith is expressed and what it looks like when it is expressed. Faith to remove a problem and faith to endure a problem are both illustrated in Hebrews 11. Habakkuk’s struggle with faith is also addressed.

Is Your Faith Working? Hebrews 11 7-19-09 Intro I want to begin this morning with a question. Is your faith working?
