Summary

Send us a textWe are saved by faith. the Bible is clear about that. We are saved by our belief. The Gospel of John tells us that - Jesus tells us that - over and over. But we know there has to be something more to it. I mean, the demons believe and shutter. And faith without works is dead. So what is this saving faith? What does it look like and how does it work?Saving faith may not be easy, but it also isn't complicated. In fact, the truth of it and what it feels and looks like may be as sim...

0:00.0	Welcome to Season 6 of the Excel Stillmore podcast. I am your host, Chris Emerson, and I am here to encourage you in your walk with the Lord, and I'm glad you've joined.
0:14.3	Our program continues to be sponsored by Cunningham Financial Group. John is a good friend and he's helped me and my family in everything
0:21.9	from stock and mutual fund investing to annuities, life insurance, and retirement planning.
0:28.2	I certainly commend him to you if you have needs in any of those areas. You can reach him at
0:33.3	205-326736-3-64. Thank you again for your ongoing encouragement and support. Let's get started.
0:44.4	Hey, welcome back. I'm really glad you're here today and I hope you're doing great. It's been a little while for me.
0:50.0	I hit a creative burst several weeks back and got ahead, and I don't think I've recorded
0:54.8	in maybe a month. So I'm feeling a little bit of excitement to get back to it, and that's allowed
0:59.3	me the space to cultivate a few practical concepts in my own life that are really working,
1:04.4	and hopefully have added a little more richness to what I can share with you. So I made the
1:08.5	decision a few years ago that I would pretty infrequently
1:11.4	record podcast content that was actually a sermon that I had preached the week before. And that came
1:17.3	as a result of some emails that I had gotten that said, hey, we really enjoy the YouTube of your
1:21.4	sermons, but maybe when we get up on Monday, we'd like to hear something different. And I've taken
1:25.4	that to heart and done my best, but every once
1:27.5	in a while, there's something that I get the chance to share in the preaching that just keeps living
1:33.3	in my life, that doesn't get forgotten by Tuesday or the next Sunday, and that seems to have had an
1:40.5	impact on my family who worship with me and even some friends. And so today, in this more
1:45.4	brief format, I want to share with you some things that I taught a few weeks ago. You can find the
1:49.9	full-length version at the YouTube page for Lindell Church of Christ, but I'm talking about
1:55.5	simple, saving faith. It can be confusing and even exhausting to see how many different angles people take
2:03.0	on trying to explain what faith is. Is faith belief? Is faith works? How do those all work together?
