What Is Faith?

November 24, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Hebrews 11:1–6

As we follow Jesus, we need to learn how to exercise faith in a clear foundational way. This will allow us to honor God and bring Him Glory. From today’s key passage, we will learn what faith looks like according to Scripture so we can have the kind of faith God desires for us to have.

The Rest in Faith: Isaac

December 15, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Hebrews 11:17–20

If there is anything that I have personally struggled with in my life, it is waiting. Have you been waiting for the wins in your life, waiting for those promises to be fulfilled, waiting for the ‘Yeses’ to happen, and waiting for God to give you the answer that you desire?” As we take another step deeper into our series on Heroes of Faith, we will wrestle with the issue of waiting. It is an aspect of the believer's maturity process. And it’s one we can’t skip over if we want to become all that God wants us to be in this life.

The Risk of Faith: Abraham

December 8, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Genesis 15:6, Genesis 12:1–4

Abraham's story is one that says there is hope for all of us. We can be men and women of real faith if we can follow Abraham’s example. Faith involves risk. If there is no risk, there is no faith. Faith is not a feeling. Faith involves standing on the Word of God, and sometimes that involves taking risks. Abraham's life was just one risk after another, one step of faith after another. So if we’re going to be people of faith, we can’t be afraid to take a risk.

The Resistance Of Faith: Noah

December 1, 2024 • Dr. Curt Dodd • Hebrews 11:7, Genesis 6:5–22

Noah's life is applauded by the Lord, not for building an ark, not for collecting animals, not for preaching, but for living a life of faith resistance. If there was ever a message that God's people need to hear, it is simply this, “God wants us to understand what it means to resist our world system by faith.” With this in mind, there’s a lot we can learn from the life of Noah.
