When Faith Doesn’t Make Sense, What Then?

Selected highlights from this sermon

Life is a school of learning from God and it helps us to grow in our faith. Abraham stayed in the school of faith his entire life, and studying him, we see what we can expect our lives to be like when we live by faith. Going through life in faith allows us to grow through the tests we face.
