What does faith that saves actually look like? Concluding the series from Romans 4:16–25, Dr. John Neufeld traces seven marks of saving faith in Abraham: it is established in God’s presence, finds hope in hopeless situations, holds firm when things look impossible, prefers what is unseen, grows strong through worship, becomes fully convinced God keeps His word, and is counted as righteousness. The...

We hear millions of words in our life…especially if you spend much time around me or our family. We forget most of the words we hear, don't we, except for some that are just too important to forget. Like our baby’s first words, or the last words of someone we love, or the words that end up changing our life. Our five-year-old grandson called me one day and he said, “Granddad, I stayed up extra lat...

When Denis started his candy company in an economically depressed neighborhood, a potential investor asked about his rate of “churn.” Churn is how many employees quit because they hate their job. “Not one person,”

Proverbs 16:16 says, “How much better to get wisdom than gold!” In a relay race, runners don't leave the baton behind. They pass it forward to someone prepared to carry it. Shouldn't we think about inheritance the same way? It's not just about what we leave behind, but whom we prepare to carry it forward. On the next Faith & Finance Live , Rob West and Ron Blue discuss passing wisdom before wealth...

Why do so many religions and philosophies say we must earn our way? From Romans 4:13–17, Dr. John Neufeld shows that Abraham received the promise to inherit the world without earning it. It’s not about what we do for God, but what God does for us; if salvation depended on human effort, Christ died for nothing. Because it rests on God’s effort, the promise is guaranteed. The Heart of the Gospel:  T...

And for many Americans they began to understand most of what the world already knew. It’s the greatest sports obsession in the world. Obsession may seem a little strong, but, well consider what happened in Thailand a...

Read: Luke 12:22-34 Tymeria let the rope slide slowly through her hand as she backed over the edge of the cliff inch by inch. She made her body into an L shape with her feet resting on the side of the cliff.
