Courageous Faith

Listen to the Hebrews daily devotional below!

Begin with prayer

Dr. McGee said, “We are living in the day of the ministry of the Holy Spirit, the day of grace, when the Spirit of God takes the things of Christ and reveals them to us.” Before you start each lesson, ask the Lord to use it to grow you up in grace and in the knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ as He is revealed in that section. Dr. McGee said, “This is the secret of life and of Christian living.”

Questions

1. In your own words describe the relationship between your faith and the truth.

2. If we reveal our faith by our obedience, what is your obedience saying about your faith today?

3. Why are many Christians so susceptible to a sin like unbelief?

4. Think about the way our culture talks about faith. How can the biblical teaching that faith is substance and evidence change the way you think about it?

5. Why do you think the writer of Hebrews included so many stories of the faith of Old Testament saints? What was the point the writer was trying to make?

6. What did someone like Noah have in common with the first readers of Hebrews?

7. Imagine you got a chance to write a follow up to Hebrews 11, which is another chapter about the examples of faithful Christians. Who, from history or your own life, would you include and why?
