0:00.0	From the pages of Hebrews Chapter 11, the Great Hall of Faith,
0:10.7	we will discover what it really means to trust God when life doesn't make sense,
0:15.9	to walk by faith when we can't see the way forward.
0:19.8	Join Scott Pauli now for this study as he highlights
0:22.7	the men and women of God who walked by faith. God loves family. Family was God's idea,
0:32.8	you know. And the psalmist reminds us that God sets the solitary in families.
0:38.6	It's my conviction that when we begin to believe God, it is certainly individual, it is personal,
0:45.6	it is spiritual, but it doesn't stop with us.
0:49.6	It sets in motion a chain of events in the life of other people. It sets in motion the influence of our faith

1:35.5	but it is one family. It is literally a household of faith. Galatians chapter 6, verse number 10,
1:43.2	refers to the church that way as a household of faith,
1:47.3	the household of God, a family of faith. And really, that's what a church is. It is God's family.
1:55.1	But may I make an application based on the example of Abraham and his family? God wants your family to be a family of faith.
2:03.9	God wants you to build a household of faith.
2:08.5	One family living on one principle, and that is faith.
2:13.3	You know, there were many things that Abraham could not build.
2:15.7	He lived in tents his whole life.
