Faith of Noah Part II
from Grapevine Ministries · host Phillip Barker
Send us Fan MailNoah didn’t have proof, applause, or even a weather forecast. He had one thing: God’s Word. We pick up the story of Noah’s faith from Hebrews 11:7 and ask what it means to trust God about “things not yet seen” when your world has no visible signs that change is coming. If you’ve ever felt stuck waiting for confirmation before you obey, Noah’s 120-year build will challenge you in the best way. We talk about why authentic Christian faith isn’t positive thinking or a gut feeling, but a confident response to what God has said in Scripture. From Romans 10 to James 2, we explore the link between faith and works, why real belief shows up in real action, and why passive “faith” can quietly turn into spiritual drift. We also reflect on 2 Peter 3 and the confronting reminder that the day of the Lord comes suddenly, pushing us to live cleaner, steadier, more Christ-like lives now. Then we zoom in on the gritty reality of obedience: the sheer size of the ark, the long grind of building, and the courage it takes to keep going while people laugh. Finally, we connect the ark to Jesus as the true ark of salvation (1 Peter 3:20) and our calling to “people the ark” by sharing the gospel and living as witnesses. If this helped you, subscribe, share it with a mate, and leave a review. What’s one work of obedience your faith is asking for right now?Good morning, good afternoon, wherever you are in the world - Welcome to Grapevine Ministries.
