An Astonishing Faith
An Astonishing Faith
Throughout the Scripture, we encounter story after story of astonishing faith. From Noah building an ark, to Abraham packing up his entire estate and setting out to an unknown destination, to Daniel maintaining his rhythms of prayer in the face of persecution, to the disciples performing miracles in the power of the Spirit and spreading the gospel – time and time again we see that faith is the byproduct of knowing God and living for his glory.
We also see that astonishing faith – characterized by astonishing acts of courage, prayer, forgiveness, obedience, and generosity – is not limited to the spiritual elite or reserved for the likes of Peter, David, or Esther. They are the blueprint for living a life that leads to why.

The Best Word
The Best Word
One of the most powerful verses in Scripture is found in John’s gospel:
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.”
John 1:1 ESV
As you keep reading, it becomes abundantly clear that the author, inspired by the Holy Spirit, identifies Jesus Christ as the “Word.”
From the first sentence in the Bible, we learn that, “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” (Genesis 1:1) Now, John explains, “In the beginning was the Word…” And not only was Jesus there in the beginning, but “the Word was with God…” And not only was the Word with God, but “the Word was God.”
So if Jesus has existed from the beginning, if He was with God, and if He was God, then that makes Him much more than a good person, a moral teacher, or even a prophet.
John claims that Jesus is fully man and fully God. Which seems ridiculous—unless, of course, it’s true.
The truth is, God loved the world so much that He gave up His divine privileges, was born into human skin, and died a criminal’s death—so that the people He loves could have eternal life. People like you.
Remember: He’s not just another name from history, He’s the very Creator of life.
