What I Didn't Say
Faith--It seems like many Christians have a weird understanding of what it means to live by faith. It almost seems as though their idea of living by faith is to sell everything, take their family out into the middle of a field, and wait for God to do everything else.
If that were really the case, the Apostle Paul would not have earned his way by being a tent-maker. The crux of the Christian faith is trusting Jesus for our salvation. Beyond that, He has given us (and continues to give us) gifts and talents that, if used properly, will enhance our lives and build up the Kingdom of God.
