Now it's interesting that in Hebrews 11 the Hall of Fame, the first guy who gets mentioned is a guy named Abel.

And by remember Abel, Cain and Abel, they're the two sons of Adam and Eve.

What did Abel do that caused him to get into the Hall of Fame with Moses and Abraham and all these other big shots?

He never did anything great, he never accomplished anything, never took any major risks.

You know what made Abel great? He gave an offering in faith.

Look at what the Bible says. It says it was faith that made Abel's offering to God a better sacrifice than Cain's.

Through his faith, God approved of his giving.

This guy didn't do anything flashy or fancy or risky, he just gave an offering.
