Have you ever been facing a really difficult situation or relationship and someone will

say, hey, you just need to have more faith?

I'm going to tell you something, the Bible doesn't teach that.

The Bible teaches something very different about faith and that's what we're going to

learn today.

Stay with me.

Thanks for joining us for this edition of Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram.

What's our Bible teacher before this international discipleship ministry focused on helping Christians

live like Christians?

And in just a minute, he'll continue our new series, Trusting Jesus No Matter What.

Today, Chip will further unpack how the Bible defines faith and identify the biggest barrier

that often stops us from fully trusting Jesus and be sure to stick around.

After this teaching, as Chip shares some helpful application, we can put into practice today.

You won't want to miss it.

If you're ready, here's Chip for the remainder of his talk, building a strong foundation

of faith.

Biblical faith is believing in the character and the promises of God to the point of acting

on them whereby your obedience is the evidence that you actually believe, that you actually

trust him.

Biblical faith is focused on the person of Jesus, the promises that he's made.

The Biblical faith is this is what you have said, and because of who you are, and because

of this specific promise that I'm holding on to, I'm willing to step out and take a risk.
