Imitating the Heroes of the Faith | The Well Podcast S1E18

In this episode of The Well podcast, Pastor Toshaun and Pastor Nick join host Les Norman to talk about the heroes of the faith in Hebrews 11.
Faith is not a feeling; it’s more than an emotion. Your emotions aren’t meant to govern you but to guide you. Many people lead a feelings-based life, but that isn’t the type of life God wants us to live.
In Christ, our feelings are transformed into righteous feelings. Because we are under the curse of sin, our feelings often come out in sinful ways. But through Christ, our feelings and emotions can be controlled. We have peace in Him that surpasses our feelings or circumstances.
God sees us in our emotions. He meets us in the midst of them and wants them to draw us closer to Him. The heroes of the faith listed in Hebrews 11 point us back to Jesus and give us examples of faith to follow.
Every human being has faith in something. It’s impossible to live without faith. You can understand that Jesus is real because there is evidence pointing to Him in all creation. Belief in Him requires faith, but we have plenty of physical evidence in creation to support that faith (Romans 1:20).
God desires our obedience. The mark of faith is being obedient to Him without striving to strive and do things in our own power. Christ cannot accept our works until we first come to Him through His work—the Cross.
Dive into these stories to learn from the examples of the heroes of the faith!
