Join Dr. Brad Miller in this episode of the Daily Bible Refresh as he explores Hebrews 11:32-40 from a progressive Christian perspective. Dr. Miller delves into stories of faith from both biblical heroes and real-life experiences, emphasizing the importance of solidarity with those on society’s margins. He discusses how faith is a tapestry woven across generations, combining both triumphs and struggles, and urges listeners to move beyond admiration into concrete action for justice and compassion.

Key Takeaways:

1. Progressive faith embraces solidarity with people marginalized by poverty, racism, homophobia, misogyny, and more.
2. Faith is communal, linking past, present, and future generations in an ongoing, unfinished story.
3. Real-life faith isn’t a simple highlight reel; it includes both victories and hardships, and requires resilience.
4. Resurrection hope is real, but faith doesn’t promise triumph in every situation—it combines grief with hope.
5. Listeners are encouraged to perform one specific act of solidarity—such as volunteering, donating, or advocating—for someone or a community at the edges.
