What Is Faith?

Faith.

It’s a word we hear often — in sermons, songs, and scripture. But what does it really mean to live by faith, not just believe in it?

Faith isn’t wishful thinking or blind hope. It’s not about striving to be good enough or ticking spiritual boxes. Faith is a relational trust — an anchored confidence in the nature of God and His goodness toward us, even when life feels uncertain.

Faith Is Relational, Not Transactional

At its core, faith is not about performing for God; it’s about partnering with Him. It's learning to trust that He's not just with us in church or during our quiet times, but in every moment of our day — in the laundry room, in the carpool line, in the workplace, in the storm.

Real faith grows when we shift from a “visitational” relationship with God to a “dwelling” one. When we stop trying to earn His love and instead live from it.

And that kind of faith? It changes everything.
