Welcome to Open the Bible with Pastor Colin Smith as he unpacks the transformative power of "Applied Faith". Just as muscles grow stronger when exercised, our faith grows when applied in challenging situations. In today's episode, Colin dives into the analogy of faith being like a muscle and explores how our trust in God must be actively applied, especially during life's trials.Pastor Colin and co-host David Pick discuss how life's trials can be seen as God's gymnasium, where faith is put to the test and strengthened. Colin shares a poignant story from the Book of Luke, illustrating how Jesus’ disciples faced a storm and were challenged to apply their faith. He reminds us that faith doesn't work automatically—it must be intentionally engaged in the situations we face.
