Faith Comes by Hearing

Sep 21, 2025    Corey Saxton

What does it truly mean to have faith that transforms your life? In this powerful message, Pastor Corey challenges us to move beyond religious ritual into genuine relationship with God through His Word. Drawing from Romans 10:14-17, he illuminates how faith comes by hearing - not just casual listening, but consistently engaging with Scripture until it becomes alive within us. Pastor Corey shares his own journey of discovering that Christianity was never meant to be a set of rules, but rather an intimate connection with Jesus Christ that changes us from the inside out. He emphasizes that just as repetitive messages in media can shape our beliefs, immersing ourselves in God's Word daily builds unshakeable faith that withstands life's trials. The sermon culminates in a practical challenge: spend the next 21 days reading one chapter of John and one chapter of Proverbs daily, speaking God's promises aloud, and staying planted in Christian community. Through vivid examples and heartfelt encouragement, Pastor Corey reminds us that true faith isn't just about Sunday worship - it's about developing a relationship with Jesus that transforms every aspect of our lives. The time for deeper faith is now.
