Faith On The Move


The author of Hebrews has been taking Old Testament examples of faith one by one. But he finally sums everything up with a montage overview of many familiar accounts... The Red Sea, Jericho, Rahab, Samson, Gideon, David, Daniel and many more...

Faith is what moved all of these Old Testament figures to do the "heroic" things they did.

Faith Shaped Choices

Faith is not a blind leap into the unknown. Faith is a choice about who you will believe. Who you believe will determine your values and your values will guide your behavior.  Moses is a good example of this. He decided that the riches of a prince in Egypt were not as valuable as the heavenly treasures to be claimed by identifying with Christ.
