The Proof of Faith

Dr. Don Whitney from SBTS was at our church this past Sunday. During the PM service he preached a sermon on "The Proof of Faith." This was a topical sermon that was very well done.

Whitney said that the Proof of Faith is how you and I respond to God when He doesn't answer our prayers (atleast not in the way we expected he would).

Whitney asked:

Can you trust God when doesn't answer?
Can you love God when he doesn't answer?
Will you worship God for who He is even if He doesn't give you ___?

He noted that the faithful Christian must trust in a "withdrawing God." We must worship God and not simply the gifts of God. You can hear the entire sermon at www.fbccarmel.com

My wife and I also were able to have Dr. Whitney and a SBTS student over lunch following the AM service. It was alot of fun being able to do this.
