S1:E7 - Faith & Perseverance

There is a terrifying verse in the book of James: "Even the demons believe—and shudder." If the enemy has intellectual belief, then what does actual, saving biblical faith look like? In this episode we unpack the critical difference between acknowledging facts and heart-level trust, why people walk away from the faith, and the incredible reality that we don't survive the Christian race because we are strong, but because God refuses to let us go.
