This sermon explores the profound concept of living by faith, using examples from Hebrews 11 and key biblical figures like Sarah, Abraham, and others.

By Faith, We Wait (Verses 11-12):

Sarah's story highlights the challenge of waiting for God's promises. Though initially marked by doubt, her faith grew as she trusted God's timing and faithfulness. Waiting is a recurring theme in scripture, often part of God’s providential plan. While waiting, believers are called to obediently trust that God is always on time—His time, not ours.

By Faith, We Endure (Verses 13-16):

The saints of Hebrews 11 endured hardships, trusting in promises they did not see fulfilled in their lifetimes. Endurance, fueled by faith, allows believers to withstand trials without losing hope. This perseverance shifts focus from seeking the world’s approval to seeking God’s. True faith gives strength to endure and glorifies God, whether through deliverance or resilience amid difficulties.

By Faith, We Trust (Verses 17-19):

Abraham’s test of faith in offering Isaac reflects ultimate trust in God’s character and promises. Tests refine faith, becoming either stumbling blocks or stepping stones. Faith matures through trials, revealing God's provision and strengthening believers to rely on Him.

The sermon emphasizes that faith is not in actions or institutions but in the person of Jesus Christ, the ultimate object and enabler of faith. The recurring theme “by faith” in Hebrews 11 invites believers to reflect on walking by faith daily, looking toward Christ as their Redeemer and guide.

In this past Sunday’s sermon, “Genuine Faith,” Pastor Adam Brock explored Hebrews 11:8-10, highlighting the life of Abraham as a profound example of faith in action. Through Abraham’s journey, we see that true faith responds to God’s call, even without knowing the destination. Pastor Adam reflected on the reality of Abraham's life—a mixture of faith and fear—and how God works through our imperfect faith when we trust in His promises.

In this powerful message, Pastor Adam Brock begins a journey through Hebrews 11, the chapter often called the "Hall of Faith." Starting with verses 1-6, Pastor Brock explores the true essence of faith, showing how it’s a steadfast trust in God’s promises rather than a blind leap or wishful thinking. Through examples like Abel and Enoch, he highlights how genuine faith leads to action and shapes our lives to please God.

In this message from Hebrews 10:19-31, Pastor Adam Brock invites us to explore the transformative access we have to God through Jesus Christ.

Pastor Adam unpacks the importance of these calls and how they equip us to embrace God’s invitation fully.
