Henry & Walter share information and stories about their years growing up together

By faith, Jericho’s walls collapsed—but by faith, God’s people were also tortured, mocked, flogged, sawed in two, and wandered destitute. Some escaped death; others endured it. Some saw victory; most only saw promises from a distance. Yet all were commended—not for outcomes, but for refusing to let pain rewrite God’s faithfulness. They died still believing, awaiting a “better resurrection.” Their stories whisper to every weary believer today: Great faith isn’t measured by deliverance in this life, but by clinging to God when deliverance never comes.

1 Thessalonians 5:14-18 gives a concise, powerful blueprint for the everyday Christian walk. Paul urges us to warn the idle, encourage the timid, help the weak, be patient with everyone, refuse revenge, and always pursue what is good for others. Then: rejoice always, pray without ceasing, and give thanks in all circumstances—this is God’s will for us in Christ Jesus.

In this episode, discover how actively seeking the good of others (even the difficult ones) is the very way we honor God Monday through Saturday. Short, practical, and life-giving—perfect for your commute.

Hebrews 11:17–22: Faith’s forward gaze. Abraham offers Isaac, trusting resurrection before the ram appears. Isaac blesses beyond sight. Jacob crosses hands in worship, defying norm for God’s order. Joseph foresees exodus from exile. Obedience first—clarity follows. Trust God’s plan; its sense dawns after the act. (48 words)

In Hebrews 11:13-16, the heroes of faith died without receiving the promises, yet greeted them from afar as strangers and exiles on earth. They openly declared that their true home was not the world they left behind nor the lands they wandered, but a better, heavenly country prepared by God. Refusing to cling to past origins—though opportunity beckoned—they pressed forward, desiring what lay ahead. Because they fixed their hearts on this eternal city, God is not ashamed to be called their God. Thus faith releases us from nostalgia’s chains, turning our gaze toward the unseen homeland where true belonging awaits.

11-02-25 Impact of Faith by LifeSource Church

In Matthew 11:25-30, Jesus reveals a profound truth: the Christian life flourishes through intimate relationship with Him, not through relentless activity or self-effort. He invites those weary from striving to find rest in Him, emphasizing that true spiritual vitality comes from knowing the Father through the Son. This passage challenges our tendency to equate faith with busyness or religious performance. Instead, Jesus offers a gentle yoke—His guidance and grace—promising rest for our souls. The Christian life, then, is rooted in surrendering to Christ’s love, trusting Him, and finding peace in His presence, not our works.

Hebrews 11:1-7 defines faith as assurance in unseen hopes, driving the Christian life forward.
