The Footsteps of Faith

Sep 21, 2025 • Rick Keller

What does it mean to truly walk in the footsteps of faith? In this message from Romans 4:1-12, we look to the life of Abraham as Paul unpacks the heart of the gospel—righteousness by faith, not by works. Abraham’s story reminds us that faith is not about boasting in our own achievements, but trusting in what God has promised and provided. Through the highs and lows of Abraham’s journey, we see that faith is a matter of the heart—available to all who believe, regardless of background or outward signs. Join us as we explore how to follow Abraham’s example and discover the blessing of a faith that rests in God’s grace alone, so that we too may walk in “the footsteps of faith” that lead to true righteousness and relationship with God.
