In his Father's Day sermon, Pastor Colin expounds on the final part of Hebrews chapter 11 and the opening of chapter 12, concluding a series on the 'faith chapter' of the Bible. He conveys the essence of faith as defined in Hebrews 11:1, asserting that faith entails believing and trusting in what God has both revealed and promised.

While one might expect Joseph's faith to be noted for resisting temptation or interpreting dreams, the Scripture instead points to his instructions concerning his bones at the end of his life as a significant act of faith.

Through exporing the faith of Abraham, Pastor Colin underscores that faith involves believing what God has revealed, trusting in His promises and living in faithful obedience
