Episode Overview

Faith is not only a gift, but it's the quality of faith that saves us, not the quantity. We don't have to wonder if we have enough faith or maybe God's disappointed in me because I don't have enough faith... it's a quality of faith that produces in you the image of Christ.
Have you ever been told that your struggles stem from a lack of faith? In this episode of 'Encounter Recovery Ministries', Rick Peterson tackles this common misconception head-on. He dives deep into the essence of faith, not as something you need more of, but as a divine gift that’s already sufficient. Faith, according to Rick, isn't about quantity but quality, and this quality is something only God can provide.
It's a refreshing take that shifts the focus from human effort to divine grace. Rick unpacks eight crucial aspects every Christian should understand about faith, emphasizing that it's not earned by merit but given freely by God. This episode is perfect for anyone feeling weighed down by the pressure to 'have more faith' and offers a comforting reminder that genuine faith is a gift, effective and transformative, because of its divine origin.
Whether you're on a recovery journey or seeking to deepen your spiritual walk, this episode offers valuable insights that can reshape your understanding of faith and its role in your life.
