Faith: Abraham’s Realization and Evidence of Things Not Seen (Aug 11, 2013)

The Letter to the Hebrews famously defines faith as "the realization of what is hoped for and evidence of things not seen."  In this Year of Faith, we delve more deeply into our understanding of what faith is.  Today, Abraham is our guide.
