Faith is where it all begins. From the moment God called Abraham to leave everything familiar and step into the unknown, the life of faith was born. Today, the Spirit of the Lord is calling us back to the foundation of our walk with Him — a life built on complete trust and confidence in God.
In this message, Pastor Andrew Eldridge takes us through the story of Abraham — the Father of Faith — to remind us that:
• Faith begins with a call. God speaks first, and we respond.
• Faith requires leaving in order to receive. Sometimes you must step out of what’s comfortable to walk into what’s promised.
• Faith looks forward. God rarely shows us the whole picture, but He always gives us His word.
• Faith obeys. True faith moves — it acts on what God has said, even when you don’t have all the answers.
• Faith grows. Abraham’s journey wasn’t perfect, but he kept walking — and so must we.
• Faith points us to Christ. The same faith that was counted to Abraham as righteousness is now fulfilled in Jesus.
