What It Means To Have Faith | ANDY STANLEY

We all wonder. When we fix our eyes somewhere other than on God, wonder leads to wander. If you’ve wandered from the faith or are looking for the door, it’s not because of Jesus. You may think Christianity requires mind-numbing, experience-denying faith, but what if that’s not true?

So sorry for your loss. Charles Stanley was a kind man. Enjoyed listening to his teaching and life long devotion to the Word of God

[AndieZona]

I feel like this perfectly explains “My grace is sufficient for you” 2 Cor 12:9

[virginiashroyer]

Another great lesson by brother Stanley. Thank you! I needed it!

[prostaffagency]

This was such a blessing to me, I finally understand faith which I had lost many years ago. Thank you 🙏

[Thetheoryof...]

I agree. Faith is not a blind, don't know, yet believe it anyway. Faith to me is a very real knowing. It's coming to understand that I belong to a system, a plan, a purpose, a Universe, a God, bigger than myself. I am a part of a whole. Faith is knowing what is and what needs to be transcends my desires and serves the whole, not just me.

Faith is the assurance of things hoped and prayed for but not seen..

[dustinkay]

Amen. You hit the nail on the head. Never heard it preached that way.

It's such a pity, I feel like you are neglecting your you tube channel.... We were always glued to the channel, especially on Sundays.... Now there is hardly any new content, and we've seen the old content 10 times over...its a pity, we have always enjoyed Andy's teachings very much. All of the best.

Faith is exactly what the scripture says. The meaning of the scripture is the scripture n we are to be faithful disciples.

[mitchelljenkins]

This is so clear in understanding true faith in Jesus

[ScottFrye]

All Scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for [c]instruction in righteousness, 17 that the man of God may be complete, thoroughly equipped for every good work.

[lynnharrington]

How do I know what God’s promise is for my life? I know what I want but is it his promise to me?

[jmadadak]

After, , listening to this explication or FAITH I feel so embarrassed and humiliation that I turned my back on Jesus and walked away angry and it’s been more than ten years since I chose to do that.

I don't understand pastors becoming rich and richer off of people who have modest incomes. $200, 000.00 a year. Something off here.

Andy Stanley seems like a kind and earnest person, but this assertion—about unanswered prayers—that "you just wanted 'the gods' to do your bidding" misses the point and is condescending. For myself, and I think many others, it's not that we asked for something, got a "no", and then threw a temper tantrum, as implied; we got no answer. Zip. Nothing ever on the other end of the telephone line. We tried many Christian traditions, many spiritual practices, hundreds of hours earnestly seeking, and nothing. A simple "no", or a "not yet, and here's why" would be one thing. It'd be an answer, an acknowledgement that something or someone, in some form, was at least "out there". This experience has not been the cause of why I'm at where I'm at, but it's contributed. I think Christian believers would do well to sit with this for awhile.

If you're going to reply, please first hear my comment as an honest and heartfelt reflection on this video, and I ask you not to pile on with "aha, here's where you went wrong / here's why you had the wrong god", etc.

OMG and we celebrate Christmas. Is this group pagans hiding as Christians lol

[MJ-qelg]

Christians are wondering away with this teaching lol

[MJ-qelg]

He opens up with basically asking himself why he still eats pork and makes unhealthy habits. God has laid out his plan about pork. Yet he can see what is written on the page. Hahahaha so true! We are not supposed to eat pork according to gods law.
