Believing Against All Hope

Jun 7, 2026    The Rev. Dr. Terry Moore

Are you trusting God's promises—or the God who made them?


In this message, Pastor Terry explores Romans 4 and Paul's reflection on Abraham and Sarah, whose story seemed impossible by every human standard. Looking at Abraham's willingness to believe against all hope, Pastor Terry shows how Paul points us beyond simply accepting certain truths about God and toward something deeper: trusting the God who makes the promises. Through Abraham's example, we discover why faith is not merely believing that God can act, but believing in the One who is always faithful.


When circumstances seem overwhelming, delayed, or even absurd, God's invitation remains the same. Move beyond simply knowing the promises and place your confidence in the Promise-Maker. The same God who fulfilled His word to Abraham and Sarah is still at work today, calling us to trust Him even when we cannot yet see the outcome.
