However, those of us who are Christians view God's Word as a catalyst that ignites our faith over and over again. As we enter the 3rd week of our study, Caleb Kaltenbach encourages our faith by discussing why the Bible is trustworthy and how it has actually improved society.

"Does it really matter if I give or tithe? Doesn't God already own everything? Why does He need anything from me?" These are questions that many Christians ask on a regular basis.

In part 4 of our series, Kawika Keliikuli draws from Malachi 3 to talk about the role that generosity plays in the development of our faith.

What does He do? As we head into the 5th week of our series, Irene Kendrick helps us to understand how the Holy Spirit encourages our faith as few can do.
