Faith Comes from Hearing the Message
“Consequently, faith comes from hearing the message, and the message is heard through the word about Christ.” ~Romans 10:17
Everyone learns differently - you can be a visual learner, or someone that learns best by listening. Or with a hands-on experience. Or a combination. My daughter is giving presentations on archeology to students as we speak - she has a slide show of pictures as she lectures and then closes the class with them making clay pots. She’s covering all the bases. Lecture alone could be a snooze-fest.
Have you ever noticed that the hymns/worship songs usually tie into the sermon message? Some churches provide a sermon outline for folks to take notes. It helps reach everyone by using different learning styles. I like seeing verses on the screen - my brains learns by seeing and hearing simultaneously.
Our faith can increase or decrease daily - it makes sense that the more we are exposed to the word of God, the better. The Bible tells us that Jesus is the Word. We need HIM. The more we are around Jesus, the more we will be like Him. Just like spouses who end up talking or even looking alike. Or when you hang around with someone with an accent, you almost always start to imitate them. I’ve listened to many recordings by English theologian N.T.Wright and there was a time when I started dreaming with a British accent!
What goes in comes out!
“As a man thinks, so he is” ~Proverbs 23:7
