Faith With Footprints

In this challenging episode of Your Weekly Calling, Brad Lowe dives into James chapter 2 and asks a question many Christians would rather avoid: If someone looked at your life, would they actually see your faith—or only hear about it?Brad explores the difference between talking about faith and living it, reminding listeners that real faith always produces action. Using James 2:17, he explains that while good works don't save us, genuine faith inevitably leaves evidence behind.Brad unpacks the danger of “fake faith”—the kind that offers thoughts and prayers but never steps in to help, talks about loving people while ignoring those in need, and knows all the right church language without showing the character of Jesus. With his signature humor and honesty, he challenges listeners to move beyond inspirational posts, worship playlists, and Bible app streaks and start living out what they claim to believe.The episode features the remarkable true story of Edward Kimball, an ordinary Sunday school teacher whose simple act of obedience led him to share the Gospel with a young shoe store employee named Dwight L. Moody. That one conversation eventually impacted millions of people around the world, proving that faithfulness in small moments can have eternal consequences.Through practical challenges and pointed questions, Brad encourages listeners to stop asking, “What do I believe?” and start asking, “What am I doing because I believe it?” The episode concludes with a powerful reminder that the greatest sermon many people will preach this week won't be with their words—it will be with their actions.
