Looking Past the Pain to the Prize
Ambitious faith will likely bring extraordinary suffering, but we can be sure God will compensate it and continue to comfort us by the security we have in Christ.
Ambitious Faith
Attempting Great Things for God
God would have us exercise ambitious faith to courageously step up to do his will no matter how difficult or intimidating it may be, knowing that he takes care of his servants.
Embracing the Unconventional & the Unexpected
Often it takes ambitious faith to obey God’s counter-intuitive commands or accept the way he lavishes his grace on the unworthy.
Trusting God When Your Back's Against the Wall
When problems, pressures or people are pitted against you and they threaten to do you harm, make sure you’re right with God, focus on him and leave your opponents for him to deal with.
Courage to Do the Right Thing
God requires ambitious faith to boldly face the consequences and temporary deprivation of resolutely pursuing a righteous life and saying no to the lure of sin.
Living & Dying with Biblical Confidence
God would have us exercise ambitious faith in boldly asking him for Christ?s work to thrive beyond the confines of our local geography and limited lifespan.
Trusting God When Hope Seems Lost
We must tenaciously trust in the goodness of God even when he makes us wait for his perfect timing or introduces a divinely designed detour.
Boldly Following God's Path for My Life
Christ has called us to follow him wherever that might lead; we should do so fearlessly, fueled by a focus on our eternal home.
Believing All of God's Promises About the Future
We must boldly in trust God’s promises about the future seeking to be prepared and to prepare as many as possible to experience God’s grace instead of his judgment.
Ardently Seeking a Deeper Relationship with God
Because we are not yet glorified, we Christians must work to achieve the joy and satisfaction of knowing God more intimately on a day-to-day basis.
Trusting God Enough to Give Him Our Best
Perceiving God’s greatness and generosity should bolster our faith to ambitiously give God our best efforts, best behavior and best gifts.
Boldly Trusting in God's Ability to Create
It is reasonable and required that we Christians have a faith that is ambitious enough to boldly affirm the biblical record of God’s personal and instantaneous creation of the universe.
Cultivating the Core Ingredient of the Christian Life
Biblical faith is more than “wishing” or “believing” it is a sincere & reasonable confidence in truth that leads to action and ultimately to God’s reward.
