You gotta have faith!
‘Faith’ is considered a dirty word in our culture today — certainly where it relates to ‘religious faith’. Hostility to Christianity and other ‘faiths’ is growing. Meanwhile ‘reason’ and ‘evidence’ are held up as the tools of enlightened humanity.

Visit the classroom where a 14-year-old child is given a hard time by classmates and teacher alike for confessing belief in Christianity: ‘No one believes in that any more!’ Visit parliament, where the Christian might be informed that ‘those speaking from faith have no part to play in the making of government policy’. Witness the Christian sharing the gospel with a friend: ‘I wish I had your faith’. We are all familiar with situations like these.
