Hebrews: Faith Is...

Those who trust God have suffered immensely in the past. Hebrews tells us they suffered in faith. Would we be willing to do this when the true moment arrived? This is a searching question for all of us to answer. Jesus said it is our calling to be willing to suffer and if need be to lay down our lives for Him. But would we have a strong enough faith to do it? How can we grow such a faith? These are matters we will be studying as we conclude the Faith chapter.
