Equipped 2026: "Following in the Footsteps of Our Father of Faith" by Jet Warren

April 25, 2026 - Equipped 2026 - Day 3 - 1:15 PM Session In this episode we unpack Hebrews 11 and ask the question: why is Abraham called the father of our faith? Using Genesis, Romans, and Hebrews as touchstones, the speaker explores Abraham not only as a literal progenitor but as a spiritual model whose life teaches us how to live by faith. Guests Jett and Luke deliver reflections that frame Abraham’s life as a pattern to follow — three specific “footprints” are highlighted: the footprint of trust (obeying God without a blueprint), the footprint of a traveler (living as temporary residents in tents while seeking a heavenly city), and the footprint of sacrifice (willingness to surrender what we love most, exemplified by Abraham’s offering of Isaac). The episode references key scriptures (Hebrews 11:8–19, Romans 4, Genesis 12 & 15, John 14:3, Philippians 3:20, 1 Corinthians 15:58) and translates those passages into practical application: examining modern “Isaacs” (idols like phones, social media, jobs, hobbies), reconsidering where we set our roots, and embracing baptism and a pilgrim mentality. The sermon challenges listeners to trade earthly certainty for God’s presence and to live visibly as people seeking a better country. Listeners can expect pastoral teaching, personal illustrations, and a clear invitation to evaluate their spiritual residency. The episode closes with gratitude to Jett, Luke, their parents and congregations, and a reminder of upcoming small-group sessions and panels for further discussion. Duration 11:06
