Reading for Thursday, Aug 2: Hebrews 11

In this great chapter, we are given the definition of faith: “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” The Hebrew writer then opens up the Scriptures and recounts the thread of faith that is woven through all the ancient stories of Hebrew history.

I’d like to open our discussion up a bit and ask you: how would you define faith? How have you seen faith at work, either in your life or in someone else’s? Let’s create a place to share some of our own “faith stories” here. I’d love to hear them if you’re comfortable sharing them.
