Pastor Colin delves into Luke chapter 17, sharing insights on how even a small faith can achieve remarkable things, yet why it is essential for believers to seek a more robust faith to face life's challenges. As we follow the disciples' plea to Jesus to 'increase our faith,' Pastor Colin explores the context of this request and offers strategies for nurturing a deeper faith. We'll revisit stories from last week that illustrated how and why faith can stumble and the steps necessary to grow in our spiritual journey. Tune in as we discuss the call to a holy life, the temptations we face, and how engaging with God's word, worship, and persevering in our walk with Jesus can help strengthen our faith.","meta_description":"Why should Christians not be content with having only 'Little Faith'?
