1. In your view, what aspects of ministry is GMH taking on that are impossible to pursue apart from faith?

2. What are you pursuing in the life of following Jesus Christ that will not happen apart from faith?

 

If you can dream—and not make dreams your master;

If you can think—and not make thoughts your aim;

If you can meet with Triumph and Disaster

And treat those two imposters just the same;

If you can bear to hear the truth you’ve spoken

Twisted by knaves to make a trap for fools;

Or watch the things you gave your life to, broken,

And stoop and build ‘em up with worn out tools:

If - by Rudyard Kipling

 

“Thus in all the saints, something reprehensible is ever to be found; yet faith, though halting and imperfect, is still approved by God. There is, therefore, no reason why the faults we labour under should break us down, or dishearten us, provided we by faith go on in the race of our calling.”

John Calvin - Commentary on the Epistle of St. Paul to the Hebrews
