About This Sermon:

This Sunday we continue our study of Hebrews by looking at the most well know of the Hebrew chapters… chapter 11. 

This chapter looks at faith and then gives us multiple examples of people who lived out their faith.  Now we could take weeks to go through each example but we are not going to do that… rather we are going to look the essence of faith… big picture… and then look at some of these “hero’s of faith” to illustrate the text… because that is how the author treats this chapter.  So here are a few things to think about: 

  1. What is faith?  A hope, a desire or a belief? 
  2. What does faith do?  It must do something… or why have it.
  3. What does faith look like?  If faith is a good thing, then how do I know if I have faith?
