Summary: Is faith 'blind trust despite the evidence,' as Richard Dawkins provocatively describes it?Is it historical knowledge or an intellectual assent to a set of doctrines?Or is it something more profound and fundamental than that? This sermon is based on Hebrews 11 and the story of Abraham's faith in God. It explores faith as a narrative, connecting us as part of a community of faith through both time and space. It was preached at Sunday Night at St John's on August 11th, 2013.It is designed to be used with:the Prezi zooming visuals found at this linkEnjoy!Note: a Bible study on Luke 12 and Hebrews 11-12 can be found at this link.
