What does it actually mean to believe in Jesus? In this episode of Marked by Grace, Pastor Heath Lambert breaks down the three essential components of genuine biblical faith: content (knowing the facts about Jesus), assent (agreeing that those facts are true), and personal trust (staking your life on what you believe).
