Embrace Trust: The Shield of Faith Mini-Series Launches
A new mini-series titled The Shield of Faith is set to encourage individuals to explore the foundational role of trust in their lives, emphasizing its significance through a spiritual lens. Led by Drake Hunter, Senior Pastor at Elevating Life Church in Fort Morgan, the series aims to guide participants on how to actively engage their faith in daily life.
The series begins with a profound reflection on the nature of trust, highlighting how deeply it is woven into our existence. Without conscious thought, individuals place trust in various aspects of their lives—from the chairs they sit in to the air they breathe. This trust is often taken for granted, yet it underpins our daily actions and decisions. Hunter prompts participants to consider the sources of their trust and how these choices shape their lives.
Central to the mini-series is the idea that faith is not merely a passive belief but an active form of trust grounded in biblical teachings. As stated in the series, “Above all, take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming arrows of the evil one,” a quote from the book of Ephesians. This emphasizes the necessity of trust as a protective measure against life’s challenges.
Exploring the Nature of Faith
Hunter asserts that faith should be seen as a relationship rather than a blind commitment. The series will delve into how genuine, Bible-rooted faith can provide strength and resilience in times of uncertainty. It seeks to illuminate the multifaceted nature of faith, focusing on safeguarding priorities, trusting amid chaos, and cultivating a godly character.
Participants will be encouraged to employ their “shield of trust,” crafted from grace and truth, to navigate the complexities of life. By acknowledging that trust is essential for spiritual growth, individuals are invited to reflect on their beliefs and the influence these beliefs have on their reality.
Over the coming weeks, discussions will revolve around the practical applications of faith in everyday situations. The series intends to equip attendees with tools to resist negativity and embrace a purposeful life grounded in trust.
Join the Journey
The mini-series will be a part of a year-long exploration of the Armor of God, inviting individuals to lift high their shields and confidently trust in divine guidance. Participants will be urged to engage actively in their faith practice and rely on God’s truth as a defense against life’s trials.
For those interested in deepening their understanding of faith, the series offers a platform for reflection and growth.
