As Christians, we sometimes struggle with understanding the difference between a capital “F” Faith that we place in Christ for Salvation and a lowercase “f” faith that we place in Christ for handling each of our life’s daily challenges. Both versions of faith are of great importance, but when the distinction between the two is never supplied to the believer, it can lead to confusion and even non-action in a time when vigorous faith action is required. Using the imagery of scaling Mt. Everest, this message is designed to help a Christian understand the practical function of faith in both their eternal life and their daily life today.
