TRUSTING FAITH

What is faith? Is it belief? Like flipping a light switch from the off to the on position, flipping our inner ideology from disbelief to belief, from no to yes?

… Faith, saving faith, is more than a flip of the switch. Faith requires more than intellectual assent to a proposition or set of statements about God. Instead, faith is an active trust, an orientation of our lives toward One we have met and find trustworthy. Faith is less about the details about what we believe, more about transformation of our very lives.
