Pastor Daniel Goulding · Jun 15, 2026
Drawing on Romans 3–5 and the example of Abraham, Pastor Daniel argues that faith is the one non-negotiable element of the Christian life. It is not earned but received as a gift (deposited through hearing God's Word), it functions as a key that unlocks justification, righteousness, and grace, and it must be exercised like a muscle — growing stronger through repeated, often costly acts of obedience — until we become, like Abraham, fully convinced that God is able to do whatever He has promised.
