Join us as Pastor Adam emphasizes that faith journeys, like most people's conversions sparked by others' faithfulness and especially Moses' story in Hebrews 11:23-26, begin with someone else's courageous obedience, such as his anonymous parents Jochebed and Amram defying Pharaoh's genocidal decree by hiding baby Moses for three months and then faithfully placing him in a basket on the Nile, trusting God amid evil's escalation, ultimately leading Moses to reject Egypt's fleeting pleasures and treasures for the greater value of suffering with God's people for Christ's sake, demonstrating that Christ is worth more than everything this world can offer, as his life foreshadows Jesus, the true Savior who triumphs over evil through the cross.

True faith looks beyond the present circumstances to God's promises, as illustrated by Jacob's worshipful, faith-filled blessing of Joseph's younger son Ephraim over the firstborn Manasseh (a divine reversal echoing the gospel of undeserved grace) and by Joseph's deathbed request to have his bones carried out of Egypt to the Promised Land, demonstrating steadfast hope in God's future deliverance even after a lifetime of trials, betrayals, faithfulness, and success in a foreign land, ultimately showing that real faith remains steady at the finish line and clings to eternal promises rather than temporary comfort.

Join us as Pastor Adam explores the dysfunctional family dynamics in Genesis 25–27—where Isaac, Rebekah, Jacob, and Esau scheme, manipulate, lie, and favor one child over the other—yet God sovereignly fulfills His promise that the older would serve the younger, culminating in Isaac's trembling act of faith when he finally submits to God's unthwartable will, reminding us that true faith isn't about controlling outcomes through our efforts but surrendering to God's faithful promises despite human failure and weakness

Abraham's willingness to sacrifice Isaac in Genesis 22 as the ultimate example of heroic faith from Hebrews 11, showing that true faith doesn't retreat when obedience gets costly or confusing—instead, it trusts God to provide, and points forward to Jesus as the Lamb God ultimately supplied so we could live.

God's faithfulness remains steadfast and reliable even when believers—like Abraham and Sarah—stumble, doubt, grow impatient, and fail in their efforts to rush or manipulate His promises, as illustrated through their long wait for a child, the misguided decision with Hagar, the enduring consequences, and their ultimate growth in trusting God's almighty power to fulfill His covenant in His perfect timing, enabling them to finish their lives well by faith despite never fully seeing the promise completed in their lifetime.

Abraham's faith as shown in Hebrews 11:8-10, obeyed God's call to leave everything familiar and step into the unknown without a map or guarantees—trusting the Promiser rather than visible circumstances—living as a sojourner in tents while longing for the permanent city God builds, challenging believers today to walk by faith not by sight, take the next obedient step when God calls, hold earthly comforts loosely, and fix hope on our eternal home.

Join us as we dive back into Hebrews 11 and learn what made Abraham a hero of the faith.

Join us we dive back into Hebrews 11. 

Hebrews 11- By Abel and Enoch, showing that genuine faith is an obedient choice to trust and submit to God's revealed way through sacrifice (ultimately Jesus Christ), even amid suffering or uncertainty, rather than a feeling or self-defined path that demands blessings.

Join us as we start a new series in Hebrews 11, emphasizing that biblical faith—functionally defined as confidence in hoped-for promises and assurance of unseen realities—enables ordinary, flawed people to trust an extraordinary God amid hardship and uncertainty, serving as the foundation for hope, perseverance, and endurance, rooted in believing God created the universe from nothing and remains faithful even when outcomes are invisible.
